Bin
Menu
To create an image from a FITS
Bin Table, the user needs to specify a binning factor, binning buffer size,
and the binning function.
Bin Function
Average-- all pixel values that fall into
one pixel bin are averaged.
Sum-- all pixel values that fall into one
pixel bin are summed.
Bin to Fit Frame
Bin to Fit Frame will calculate a bin factor
as a power of 2 that will allow the entire data space to be displayed in
the current frame.
Bin Block Factor
A value greater or equal to zero. This value
indicates the number of pixel values that will fall into a particular bin.
Bin Buffer Size
The overall size of the image generated. This
has no relation to min and max values of the columns used to create the
