... 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. ...

Stage 1 (CALNICA) calibrates individual exposures without information from other members of the association. ... Stage 2 of calibration (CALNICB) only operates on associated images that have previously gone through CALNICA processing, and creates combined images for each distinct (non-overlapping) pointing within the association. ...

If the source cover a large fraction of the slit, spectra off-source must be observed to adequately sample the sky background. ... The on chip integration time (time spent in each position of the slit) must not exceed 40 seconds in J and H bands and 60 seconds in K band. ...
