Step Arguments

save_persistence = string(default=None) # Name of ASDF output file for the persistence array persistence_time = integer(default=None) # Time, in seconds, to use for persistence window persistence_array_file = string(default=None) # A path to an ASDF file containing a 2-D array of persistence times per pixel persistence_dnu = boolean(default=False) # If True the set the DO_NOT_USE flag with PERSISTENCE

The persistence step has four step-specific arguments.

  • --save_persistence

This is a string parameter for a path to save the persistence array to a file. If no path is given, this argument is set to NoneType and no persistence array is saved.

  • --persistence_time

This is an integer detailing the length of time for the flagging window. For example, if 200, then once a flagging window has been determined, the flagging window for that pixel will end 200 seconds later. The default is None. A positive integer is needed for the persistence flagging to be done.

  • --persistence_array_file

This is a path to a file with timing data for the end of a timing window for each pixel. The time is giving in epoch time.

  • --persistence_dnu

This boolean determines if the DO_NOT_USE flag will get set when the PERSISTENCE flag gets set.
