A suitable flat-field spectrum and arc spectrum should previously have been reduced and filed with the calibration system.
It is recommended that the observation types of the observations are set to OBJECT and SKY as appropriate. This is inconvenient if you wish to set up a sequence using an offset iterator in ORAC-OT, so any frames with a telescope offset greater than 30 arcsec will be assumed to be a sky position.
Variances are propagated if KAPPA 1.0 or later is available. A warning is displayed if variances are lost.
Any number of sky-object pairs in any jitter pattern may be used.
