Many thanks for your attention!!

1. Installation

Get BasyouhuP9901 ver.3 installation package from
	http://www.nipr.ac.jp/~yukimatu/SDsmr/BasyouhuP9901v3/  (here!)
The installation package file you should get is
	BasyouhuP9901v3.tar.gz
	    (check if the size is 32891 bytes & cksum = 3619870076 on QNX)
	    (Never use BasyouhuP9901.tar.gz !!! It's OLD VERSION!!!)
	    (Never use BasyouhuP9901v2.tar.gz !!! It's OLD VERSION!!!)
	    (If you cannot get/save it, please try the following...
		Install packages to choose one.)


	(You can also see our SENSU Summary Plot page,
		http://www.nipr.ac.jp/~yukimatu/SDsmr/ just for your fun.:-)

Put it on your Radops QNX PC.
	(Be sure the file name shuold be
		"BasyouhuP9901v3.tar.gz" or "BasyouhuP9901v3.tar.F".
	 If it's not so (e.g. BasyouhuP9901v3_tar.gz, BasyouhuP9901v3.tgz),
	 rename it after transfering it to QNX...)
	(If you use older QNX (earlier than v4.24)
	 whose "install" program does not support gzipped packages,
	 first you should uncompress it by gunzip,
	 and then freeze it by doing "freeze -v BasyouhuP9901v3.tar"
	 to create "BasyouhuP9901v3.tar.F" before going ahead...)
	(Or you can get "BasyouhuP9901v3.tar" or "BasyouhuP9901v3.tar.F"
	 directly from this web. Press "Install packages" above.)
	(If you don't have gzip/gunzip on QNX, you can get it from Quics!
	 Press here to get "gzip.tar.F"!)

Do the following on your Radops QNX PC.
	install -u BasyouhuP9901v3.tar.gz
	(If you get or create "BasyouhuP9901v3.tar.F", do instead like...
		install -u BasyouhuP9901v3.tar.F           )
and follow the setup instruction to complete the installation process...
(Julian, now you can install it in any directory you like...:-)
This should work for Radops2000 version 4.01 and 4.10
on both QNX 4.22A and QNX 4.24, I hope.
(I didn't check it on QNX 4.25 which has already been released.)

If you encounter any problem, please let me know it as soon as possible.

	PS. You can also see source codes here on this web.
		BasyouhuP9901.c (revised)
		BasyouhuP9901.h (revised)
		makefile (revised for jth)
		    report2.c
		    sync2.h
		    ntp.h
		    forbid_freq_check.h
		    option2.h
		    show.h
		        freq_band.h
		        pulse_code.h

2. Schedule file

(The same documentation as this is included in the installation package.
 Its file name is "00Readme" found in the source directory where you install.
 You can use it to create your schedule file
 (and you can also aviod any unexpected mistyping!!!).


1999  1 24  0  0  /radops/usr/bin/BasyouhuP9901 -mode 1
1999  1 25  0  0  /radops/usr/bin/BasyouhuP9901 -mode 2

	.............

Please note that '-mode' option is indispensable/required for EACH special DAY!
(If you don't specify it, it will terminate without doing anything! Take care!)
	'-mode 1'    for Jan.24,1999 (for all radars)
	'-mode 2'    for Jan.25,1999 (for all radars)
	'-mode 3'    for Jan.29,1999 (for all radars)
	'-mode 4'    for Jan.30,1999 (for all radars)
	'-mode 5'    for Feb. 4,1999 (for all radars)
	'-mode 6'    for Feb. 9,1999 (for all radars)
	'-mode 7'    for Feb.20,1999 (for all radars)
	'-mode 8'    for Feb.25,1999 (for all radars)

If you think your radar/Radops cannot perform intt=2, do instead e.g.
1999  1 24  0  0  /radops/usr/bin/BasyouhuP9901 -mode 1 -it 3
('-it' option will overide the default intt selected by '-mode' option.)

We will be very happy if you can specify the best frequencies
(instead of your default definition in /radops/usr/include/default.h)
to get as much ionospheric/auroral echo as possible (not ground scatter).
To do so, add '-df' and '-nf' option just like in normal_scan.

1999  1 24  0  0  /radops/usr/bin/BasyouhuP9901 -mode 1 -df xxxxx -nf yyyy
1999  1 25  0  0  /radops/usr/bin/BasyouhuP9901 -mode 2 -df xxxxx -nf yyyy

If you need more info, you can see the online usage of this RCP by doing
	use BasyouhuP9901
or read the source code or ask me.

3. Test running, please...

	After reading the explanation of the sounding mode below,
	all the radars should test this RCP in DT in this month.
	Please test each mode (all the 8 modes) at your radar site.
	(If you install this version only for Feb. ST time,
	 tests only for 4 modes (5,6,7 & 8) will be enough.)
	(It's good enough for each mode to run just for 10 to 15 min or so.)
	And please report any problem to me ASAP if any.
	Please make sure again that you specify '-mode' option
	for each test run (for each mode) as describled above
	  (again, if you don't specify it, this RCP will fail...)
	and please test all the 4 modes (5,6,7 & 8) for Feb.ST!!
	You can see display task's display or 'errlog' file to check
		if intt is correct or not, and
		if beam sequence is correct or not.
	This RCP will output time/bmnum/scan for each beam in errlog file.

	Many thanks for your great efforts to check and run this RCP!!

4. Sounding mode

	This BasyouhuP9901 is a modified version of Basyouhu scan
	which ran for our Special Time in Fab.,1998.
	Intt is shortened(2or3 sec now) to suit for our pulsation observation.
	(If any of you cannot perform intt=2 on your radar, let me know soon.)
	For most radars for most days, various Basyouhu scans will be made
	to get 1 or 2 high time resolution special camping beams data
	with high time resolution global convection data simultaneously.
	rsep=45km,frang=180km,mpinc=2400 as usual, but no GPS synchronization.
	CP=5241
	Detailed beam sequences for all the radars will be shown below...

5. Beam sequence (revised)

	Each beam sequence for each mode(day) for each radar is
	almost completely different from ones for the other modes/radars
	due to different Geotail orbit/MLT and our intention.
	I try to summarize all the sequences here...

6. Notes


'vlptm' is now not good for any beam sequences which include camping beams.
This is because vlptm regards any beams with scan!=0 as start_beam
which means any special camping beam whose scan value is negative
will be regarded as a start_beam and which is meaningless.
If you change vlptm code a bit you might get much more proper vec files
for some of special programs including Basyouhu...
A line 277 in vlptm.c both in Radops2000 version 4.01 and version 4.10,
	if (scan && (bmbak != -1)) { ....
shuold be modified to
	if ((scan==1) && (bmbak != -1)) { ....
(or	if ((scan>0) && (bmbak != -1)) { ....   (this is my favorite...)).
I strongly recommend you to adopt this fix
to get proper vec files even when we do any other mode than normal_scan.
(before grid files officially become used for the ISTP KP data
 or before next Radops is available.)
How do Mike and Rob think about this?


That's it.
Many thanks in advance!

Sessai
