SAOtng supports display of photon event data contained in raw files, similar to its support for FITS Binary Table extensions (e.g., X-ray event lists). ... Because event files do not usually contain enough information to generate an image, we have adopted some conventions for specifying how to interpret the data in these files and for how to bin rows of events into images. To image an event file, it is first of all necessary to define the structure of the events in the event file. ...

... The measurements themselves should be stored in a column with the label SIGNAL. ... Programs will expect that SIGNAL represents the integration of the photon flux for the exposure time given in the EXPTIME column (see section ). ... In that case, the column label should be RAWMAG; see Table . Programs will expect RAWMAG to be the usual negative logarithms of intensities; that is, RAWMAG values only use EXPTIME in determining weights. ...
