Where does RTS2 put data

The path to the image data is defined in the rts2.ini file found in /etc/rts2/ directory. Currently you will see

Currently you will see these definitions in the file:

; %b expansion
base_path = "/home/rts2obs/rts2images"

; Images are stored on this path before they are processed.
que_path = "%b/queue/%N/%c/%t/%f"

; The following paths specify where to put images after processing. Every image is first placed
; in queue, and then renamed to target location based on image type, result of astrometry,..
;
; If the following paths are empty/not set, then the images will be not be renamed.
;
; Path for acqusition images
acq_path = "%b/%N/acq/%f"a
; Path for good images - images that were matched with the catalogue
archive_path = "%b/%N/archive/%t/%f"
; Path for bad images - images without match with catalogue.
trash_path = "%b/%N/trash/%t/%f"
; Path for raw skyflats.
flat_path = "%b/%N/skyflats/%f"
; Path for raw darks
dark_path = "%b/%N/darks/%f"

For the most part this means that objects in a queue will be stored in /home/rts2obs/rts2images/queue//C0//
