Following up on Sheila's response ...

Header variable CONSTANT is not used in the transfer polezero instrument
correction, and as of RDSEED v5.1 is not put in the header. There was a
bug in SAC prior to the just released v101.5 regarding CONSTANT, so best
to get the new version. However, there is a bug in RDSEED v5.1 that may
cause problems working with transfer polezero on some operating systems.
See http://www.iris.edu/software/sac/commands/transfer.html for further
discussion.

Finally, one should included the FREQLIMITIS argument in the TRANSFER call
or one gets excessive correction at long periods. The effect is not as
bad with a correction to velocity as it is with a correction to
dislplacement. The online HELP file discusses this as well.

  • Hi Arthur & Sheila,

    Thank you very much.
    I will download a new version of SAC and include the FREQlimit argument.
    Best regards.

    Yueling
