Welcome to program SCHED. Version: 6.05 June 2006 The manual is at http://www.aoc.nrao.edu/~cwalker/sched/sched/sched.html Unix users should set $SCHED to the base area where SCHED is installed. Most run time messages will be in sched.runlog Some useful commands to give now if running interactively: SCHedule= : Specify input file. PLOT : Invokes uv, xy, rd, and uptime plotting. FREQLIST=lowF,highF : Make frequency list (MHz). Then exit. EXIT : Leave program. / : End of inputs - run program (or EXIT). SRREAD: Reading source catalog: Program_input RDSET: Reading setup file: geodetic.set RDSET: Reading setup file: bb229.set RDSET: Reading setup file: x-band.set STREAD: Reading station catalog: /home/arana/cwalker/sched/catalogs/stations.dat STREAD: Will read locations file /home/arana/cwalker/sched/catalogs/locations.dat SCHIN: Found 689 input scans. TPINI: Using default tape initialization information. SRREAD: Reading source catalog: /home/arana/cwalker/sched/catalogs/sources.vlba GETFREQ: Reading frequency file: /home/arana/cwalker/sched/catalogs/freq.dat SHORTN: WARNING - Source names longer than 8 characters used. Mark III correlators and geodetic software will have problems. SETFCAT: In setup: geodetic.set Station VLA27 WRTMSG: Special message from routine SETFCAT: ----------- WARNING ----------- SCHED could not find a frequency catalog group that matched the setup file and station mentioned above. Below are the closest matches with at least some overlap in RF frequency. You can use FREQLIST (a main program input) to get the frequency catalog group and IF numbers that are available. Or you can look in freq.dat in the catalogs area. Since SCHED cannot confirm the validity of your setup, check and be very sure it is correct! In the table below, a match is indicated by a T. A mismatch is indicated by F.

Is this intentional? This messes up SCHED internal bookkeeping. As a result, DOPPLER, FREQ, and BW will be disabled for scans using this setup. CHKSC1: *** Shouldn't you be using AUTOTAPE=2 (VLBA stations, VLBA correlator). SCHOPT: First output scan will be number 1 WRTMSG: Special message from routine AUTODOWN: * Stations using automatic tape allocation or disk recording systems are being removed from scans when the source is below the antenna pointing limits. This behavior can be overridden using DODOWN. WRTMSG: Special message from routine SETTPS: Tape is being kept running through short gaps between scans. Add TPSTART to the SUMITEM list to see details. MINPAUSE and PRESTART may be used to adjust. Remember MINPAUSE is multiplied by the speed up factor. SCHOPT: There will be 689 output scans ( 1 - 689) from 28/02:00:00 to 28/13:58:47 VLASCHK: **** WARNING **** One or more scans at VLA27 uses an unphased IF. This might be ok for VLA only calibration scans. For VX mode scans, the check was against the preceeding phasing scan. Details are in sched.runlog. The offending scans are: The second set of IFCHANs for VX scans are from the last phasing scan.
