We show our exploration of sets of PTC data for different detectors of the LSSTCam, and inspect how it deviates from polynomial and exponential fits. We present a tutorial on how to connect to the Rubin Science Platform and access the notebooks and other project files. Then we present the approach taken to work with the LSST Science Pipeline's linearizer algorithm and the results obtained by varying the parameters involved in the different fits that can be used.
