zdc_to_dc

procedure zdc_to_dc, zdc, dc, [/data], [status=variable]

Convert a zpectrometer data container to a standard GBTIDL data container.

The output data container, dc, is reused if possible (it has the appropriate type and size). If it can not be used, free_data is first used to clean up the pointers that it contains and then a new data container is constructed using data_new.

By default, the LAGS array is used and the returned data container is a continuum data container. If the DATA array is requested (using the DATA flag) then a spectrum data container is returned. It is the responsibility of the caller to free the returned data container as necessary using data_free.

scan_number will hold the mc_scan value and procseqn will hold the zpectrometer scan value.

cal_state will hold the diode value

if_number will hold the beindex value
