The plotting capabilities should be very useful, especially during proposal writing and while planning observations. SCHED is not interactive unless plots are being made, in which case there is a convenient, interactive interface to control the plotting. All of the examples are complete, working files. The easiest way to create an input file is to copy one of the examples and modify it for your particular project. SCHED creates a variety of output files that provide summary and detailed information to the scheduler and telescope control information for the VLBI station. Scheduling with SCHED involves creating an input file with a text editor, and then running the program on that file. The rest of the manual can be treated as a reference to be consulted to answer questions.
The INTRODUCTION gives an overview of the program and is the only chapter that a new user should read before starting to use the program. This manual describes how to use the program, provides extensive information on all possible inputs,Īnd gives considerable information and advice on many aspects of scheduling VLBI observations. It writes VEX files that describe the details of an observation and are becoming the near universal format for distribution of schedules to VLBI telescopes and correlators. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) and other VLBI observations. SCHED is a program for planning and scheduling Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA), High Sensitivity Array (HSA), Global Very Long Baseline Interferometry (Global VLBI), European VLBI Network (EVN), Long Baseline Array (LBA Australia), Korean VLBI Network (KVN), VLBI on the Karl G. This release, 11.7 (Jun 2022), is an update to the earlier 11.6 (May 2020) release, containing mostly minor updates.
