FP_MODE

The observer will be asked whether the detector being used is the IPCS or CCD. This command must always be specified before any of the other procedures are used.

If a CCD is being used, the observer will be prompted for the values of the following logical names. The observer is unlikely to know the values of all these logical names, but the support astronomer should.

• The name of the D-task (e.g. CCD1)

• The name of the DMS buffer (e.g. ISIS_CCD1)

• The number of the DMS buffer (e.g. 2)

• The name of the DCT buffer (e.g. ISISCCD1)

• The head number of the CCD.
