command

INS-DAS-29:
Operations
manual for UltraDAS
Function:
clearreads sets the number of clearing reads to be performed prior to
observations.
Usage:
clearreads [<camera>] <n-reads>
where n-reads is the number of readouts to be performed before
the observation starts.
Examples:
clearreads liris 3
sets up the number of clearing reads to be performed on the detector to
3
Notes and caveats:
This command is normally only useful for NDR cameras such as INGRID and
LIRIS.
For multiple observations using 'multrun' type commands, the clearing
readouts are performed only once at the start of the multrun sequence.
The number of clearing reads for a particular detector defaults to the
value set in the udas camera configuration file.
