Target List Editor

To edit the Target List expand the goal in the project tree and click on Target List . The Target List form is displayed in Figure  E.1 .

The target list is compiled from the ALMA calibrator catalogue. These targets can either be explicitly set beforehand, or the target list can be compiled by searching the ALMA calibrator catalogue at project execution time.

To use a dynamically-generated target list, select the Generate target list at execution time option. To edit the search criteria used to generate the target list, click the Edit Selection Criteria button to launch the Target List Query Editor.This will start the Target List Query Editor where the search parameters can bespecified. The form is very similar to the Calibration Selection Tool described in Section  5.2 with the exception of the maximum number of targetsthat can be specified here. An example form is visible in Figure  E.2 .A search of the ALMA calibrator catalogue will be performed at project execution time and the resulting matches used as the survey target list.

Alternatively, to fix the targets beforehand, select the User-selected target list option.This will startup the Target List Selector which is identical to the Calibration Selection Tool. After the selection the various buttons at the bottom can be used to manupulate the ]User-selected target list. e.g Add... and Remove to add and remove calibrators.

The integration time spent on each target in the target list can be set by entering a value in the Integration time per target entry box.
