Commands:

Name Description
StateInput: DevVoid
Output: State		 This command gets the device state (stored in its device_state data member) and returns it to the caller.
StatusInput: DevVoid
Output: DevString		 This command gets the device status (stored in its device_status data member) and returns it to the caller.
AbortInput: DevVoid
Output: DevVoid		 stops acquisition already running
ArmInput: DevVoid
Output: DevVoid		 will Arm the MCA (ie prepare the MCA).
ClearDataInput: DevVoid
Output: DevVoid		 clears the acquisition memory
GetPartOfSpectrumInput: DevVarDoubleArray
Output: DevVarLongArray		 returns the data starting at argin[0] (exception if argin[0] < starting channel cofigured for argin[1] channel truncated if exceeds the end_channel configured
GetPauseStatusInput: DevVoid
Output: DevString		 returns PAUSE or RUNNING according to acquisition stopped or running
GetSpeedAndResolutionConfigurationInput: DevVoid
Output: DevLong		 returns the processor configured : 0 : max cps 1 : ... cps 2 : ..... cps 3 : min cps
ResetInput: DevVoid
Output: DevString		 None.
SendRontecMessageInput: DevString
Output: DevString		 None.
SetROIsInput: DevVarDoubleArray
Output: DevVoid		 Set the ROIs. the parameter is an array with values going by pair: tab[0]=126, tab[1]=238 -> first ROI starts from 126, ends to 238 tab[2]=1569,tab[3]=2368 -> second ROI starts from 1569, ends to 2368.
SetSingleROIInput: DevVarDoubleArray
Output: DevVoid		 configures the TTL output number for pulse output photons processed with low_channel < energy < high_channel the RONTEC waits for energy so we retreive energy in DServer from channel and MaxFluoEnergy channels are retreived according amplifier and energy calibration. not alowed if acquisition is running Exception if ROI number not in the ConnectedROIMask property
SetSpeedAndResolutionConfigurationInput: DevLong
Output: DevVoid		 selects the processor 0 : max cps ...... 3 : min cps depends on real hardware exception if error
StartInput: DevVoid
Output: DevVoid		 starts a acquisition previously configured with attributes startingChannel, endingChannel, integrationTime for time given in integrationTime clears memory in the MCA if not done. for continuous acquisition : integrationTime=0

Name Description

Properties:

Name Description
ConnectedROIMaskDevString list of the TTL outputs connected to a counter just for control and throw exception if try to configure a ROI that is not in the list 8 TTL outputs are available with the current RONTEC MCA hardware example : 1 4 represents : ouptut1, output 4 connected default : 1
MaxFluoEnergyDevDouble maximum fluo energy of the last MCA channel. with the current RONTEC MCA Hardware can be 10, 20, 40, or 80 KeV default : 80.0
NumberOfChannelsDevLong number of channels of the MCA. The current RONTEC MCA hardware has 4096 channels. this is for extentions purpose only, let the default value of 4096
SerialLineUrlDevString Tango name of the serial line device the other serial line properties are fixed for the RONTEC RCL : N( no parity),8( data bits),1(stop bit), hardware handshake ( RTS/CTS
SpectrumPacketSizeDevLong Spectrum read packet size used in reading thread
EnergyCoeff0Double[]Type Energy conversion polynomial coefficient order 0
EnergyCoeff1Double[]Type Energy conversion polynomial coefficient order 0
EnergyCoeff2Double[]Type Energy conversion polynomial coefficient order 2
IsLiveTimeImplementedDevBoolean some RONTEC have live time implemented, some not. If live time is implemented, set this attribute to TRUE otherwise to false important for performance and memory leak
