VPhot Sequence File Format

Technology VPhot

On the VPhot “Admin->Sequences->Help->file format->Click here for an example” page there is an example file showing CI Cyg as the target.

On CI Cyg’s line in the file, at the very end of the line are the numbers “0 0 0” that are not described by the documentation. Can you explain what this series of numbers represents? I am asking because in my own sequences, I sometimes see different numbers in this place.

Thanks for your help.

Hi
two lines above it says:

  • If there is no magnitude available (as for target stars), use 0
    Ray

Thanks for the answer Ray, but I don’t think it addresses my question.

The note you mentioned “* If there is no magnitude available (as for target stars), use 0” is referring to the zero circled in green. I am asking about 0 0 0 circled in red.

Can anyone answer the question “what are the three trailing zeroes in the example sequence file (circled in red above) referring to?”

Thanks,

John
