Index File Configurations

Special FITS index files contain the lists of CALDB keywords for the principle header data unit (HDU) of each calibration file; there is one index file for each instrumental branch. More information is available from the Indexing System page.

The index files are named caldbNxxxx.indx, where xxxx is a four-digit version number. The following table gives the version number of the instrument branch for each CALDB release.
