Matching CIAO and CALDB Versions

CIAO 3.4 requires CALDB 3.3.0 or higher to operate properly.

CALDB 3.4.0 and higher should not be used unless you are running CIAO 3.4 or CIAO 4.0.

Are your versions mismatched? Time to update CIAO and CALDB!

These are the webpages relative to the CIAO 3.4 release (18 December 2006). They are no longer actively updated, however the CXC will continue limited support of CIAO 3.4 for the near future.

CIAO 3.4 users should check the CALDB 3 website for compatible calibration updates.

The newest version of the Chandra Interactive Analysis of Observations software, is CIAO 4.1, released on 15 December 2008. Read the release notes for detailed information. This release requires that CALDB 4.1.0 be installed for the software to work correctly.

  1. Requires a uniformly-gridded RMF

  2. Block names containing blank spaces are treated as bad syntax

Bugs

  1. Requires a uniformly-gridded RMF

    The output from mkrmf works correctly as input to rmfimg.

  2. Block names containing blank spaces are treated as bad syntax

    If the extension in the input file name has a space in it, the tool will fail. This example uses a Con-X RMF: 

    unix% rmfimg "conx-ea-101106-b10.rsp[SPECRESP MATRIX]" rsp.img
#   (CIAO 4.0): Failed to open conx-ea-101106-b10.rsp[SPECRESP MATRIX]: 
Must have RMF file

    Workaround:

    Refer to the block by number instead of name, e.g. "conx-ea-101106-b10.rsp[3]".
