To run a full schedule, simulate, correlate cycle:

Note: you must have a ~/.vdifsim file with cluster members listed


1. (optional) Generate .vex file

  sched < cband1.key

2. (optional, at NRAO only) Append clock and EOPs to .vex file

  vex2obs --preobs cband1.vex

3. Create .v2d file from .oms file

  oms2v2d --sim cband1.oms

4. Edit .v2d file if needed

5. generate filelists

  makesimfilelist cband1.vex

6. Generate correlator jobs

  vex2difx cband1.v2d
 
7. Generate delay model

  difxcalc cband1*.calc

8. MPI-based -- run jobs in parallel

  runvdifsim -v -m cband1_*.input

or if you have a vdifsim config file:

  runvdifsim -v -m -c cband1.vdifsim cband1_*.input

9. Correlate the data

  startdifx -v -f -n cband1_*.input

10. Generate a FITS file

  difx2fits cband1_*.difx CBAND1.FITS
