SOLVE DELAY

 

        CLIC\SOLVE DELAY   [/SEARCH range interval] [/PLOT]

    This uses a linear method to  determine  delays.  The  baselines  to  be
    determined   must  have   been   selected   by  the SET BASELINE (or SET
    ANTENNA) command, and  the  data  plotted;  plot  axes  must  have  been
    previously selected  by  :   SET  X  I_FREQUENCY and SET Y PHASE.

    The results are given in nanoseconds.

    The /SEARCH  option  enables   an   automatic   search   with   starting
    offsets   from  -range|2  to  +range|2  by steps of given interval.  the
    default range is 200 nanoseconds, with interval of 1 nanosecond.

    With SET  ANTENNA  in   action   the   antenna   delays    are  directly
    fitted to the antenna phases, ensuring delay closure.

    Use later command PRINT DELAY to create a procedure file   (named  CLIC-
    DELAY.OBS)    containing   the  fitted antenna  delays.   This procedure
    file may be executed by  the  observing  program  OBS  on   the  control
    computer BURE01.

    With option /PLOT, the fitted phases pill be plotted over the data.
