B Classified list of LCOGT primitives
LCOGT primitives may be classified in terms of their camera class and observing mode as follows.
Note that a lot of the LCOSBIG primitives are common to the other instrument classes unless it has
been overridden by an instrument-specific version. The instrument-specific primitives are used in
preference to the generic ones when reducing that class of instrument data i.e. the LCOSINISTRO
version of _MAKE_BIAS_FROM_GROUP_ will be used instead of the LCOSBIG one when reducing
LCOSINISTRO data.
