Usage of checkAntennaPositionFiles

Return to directory of Todd's CASA extensions

Shows how recently the antenna position files (antennaMoves.txt and almaAntPos.txt) have been updated by displaying the most recent entries. It finds these files in the same directory tree as your analysisUtils was found, i.e. in AIV/science/PadData/antennaMoves.txt and almaAntPos.txt

Optional: supply an antenna (or pad) name, and the antenna moves output will be restricted to that antenna (or pad).

Usage:

CASA <3>: au.checkAntennaPositionFiles(historyLength=6, antenna='')

Example 1

CASA <26>: au.checkAntennaPositionFiles()
