Use FK4 B1950 as defaults?
- Description:
- This attribute is a boolean value which specifies a default equinox
and reference frame to use when reading a FrameSetFrameSet from a FitsChanFitsChan
with a foreign (i.e. non-native) encoding. It is only used if the FITS
header contains RA and DEC axes but contains no information about the
reference frame or equinox. If this is the case, then values of FK4 and
B1950 are assumed if the DefB1950 attribute has a non-zero value and
ICRS is assumed if DefB1950 is zero. The default value for DefB1950
depends on the value of the EncodingEncoding attribute: for FITS-WCS encoding
the default is zero, and for all other encodings it is one.
