... The NICMOS calibration task is divided into two stages: calnica, which is used for every individual exposure, and calnicb, which is used after calnica on those exposures which comprise an association. The first calibration stage, calnica, ( Figure 13.1 ) performs those calibrations which can be done to a single exposure using the configuration information from its telemetry and the Calibration Data Base. ... Scale (when necessary) and subtract the dark image. ...

... A data set contains a science frame and all its associated calibration frames. In order to archive a maximum of efficiency the CCD package uses a simple and straightforward naming convention: the names of the data sets are identical to the names of the science frames. ... By combining the calibration frames of a particular exposure type ( e.g. bias) the user can create a master calibration frame. ... Below follows a listing of calibration frames that currently can be handling in the CCD package. ...
