This chapter describes how to set up the the environment and the analysis data and how to analyse data from  the two instruments that are part of IBIS  ISGRI and PICsIT  These two instruments are quite different in  energy range  ISGRI starts from 15 keV and PICsIT starts from 200 keV  and sensitivity  and are optimised  for different targets  This is why we have decided to guide you through the analysis of the crowded Galactic  Centre around 4U 1700 377 for ISGRI and of the bright Crab for PICsIT     Here we assume that you have already successfully installed the ISDC Off line Scientific Analysis  OSA   Software  the directory in which OSA is installed is later on referred to as the ISDC_ENV directory   If not   then look at the    INTEGRAL Off line Scientific Analysis Installation Guide     5   for detailed help     6 1 Setting up the analysis data    In order to set up a proper environment  you first have to create an analysis directory  e g ibis_data_rep   and    cd    into it     mkdir ibis_data_rep  cd ibis_data_rep    This working directory ibis data rep will be referred to as the  REP BASE PROD    directory in the  following  All the data required in your analysis should then be available from this  top  directory  and they  should be organized as follows    e scw    data produced by the instruments  e g   event tables  cut and stored by ScWs   e aux    auxiliary data provided by the ground segment  e g   time correlations    e cat    ISDC reference catalogue  OSA C
