+//  ***   BE SURE TO TEST BEFORE AND AFTER FOR 'IDLING'... CLEAR THE CCD EVERY OTHER FRAME TO TRY AND ELIMINATE NOISE BUILDUP
+//From http://www.ing.iac.es/~docs/ins/das/ins-das-29/integration.html
+//"Idling" vs. integrating
+//Charge from light leaks and thermal noise builds up on the detector between observations. If this charge is integrated by the detector, it may not be completely
+//cleared away by the clear cycle of the next observation. In that case, the observation will be contaminated by extra counts. (Often, this appears as a ramp in the
+//background leading up to a saturated region in the low-numbered rows.)
+//To avoid this problem, the detector is made to clear itself continuously between observations. This is called "idling", and is reported as such on the mimic.
