simulator.settimes - Function

2.4.1 Set integration time, etc.


Description

This method sets values to be used in sm.observe.

If usehourangle=False, the start and stop times in sm.observe are referenced to referencetime.

If usehourangle=True, then in sm.observe, starttime/stoptime will be interpreted as startha/stopha. In that case, the start and stop times are calculated such that the start time is later than the reference time, but less than one day later. The hour angles refer to the first source observed.
