Attributes:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| OnlineScalar: DevShort | Detector is Online (1) or Offline (0). |
| ConfigFileScalar: DevString | The name of the configuration file. |
| ParameterFileScalar: DevString | File containing the main detector parameters for the\nmeasurement. |
| SetupFileScalar: DevString | This is the root of the filename for the complete detector\nsetup (including configuration, trimbits, flat field\ncoefficients, badchannels etc.). The extension is\nautomatically generated. |
| CalibrationDirScalar: DevString | The path of the calibration files. |
| TrimDirScalar: DevString | The path of the trim files. |

| OutDirScalar: DevString | The directory to which the files will be written by default. |
| OutFileNameScalar: DevString | The filename to which the files will be written by default\n(to which file and position indexes will eventually be\nattached). |
| OutFileIndexScalar: DevLong | The start index of the output files (automatically\nincremented by the acquisition functions). |
| EnableMergeScalar: DevBoolean | Set to 'true' to enable merging of frames to a single image. Otherwise\nthey will be kept in OutDir. |
| MinFramesScalar: DevShort | If less than MinFrames frames are acquired, they are not merged in a\nsingle image, but just moved to MergeDir. |
| MergeDirScalar: DevString | The directory to which the frames will be merged (or just moved). |
| MergeOngoingScalar: DevBoolean | This flag is 'true' when a merging is ongoing. |
| NMaxModulesScalar: DevShort | The maximum number of detector modules. |
| NModulesScalar: DevShort | — |
| SettingsScalar: DevString | Detector settings. Can be:\n uninitialised\n standard\n fast\n highgain |
| ThresholdScalar: DevShort | Detector threshold in eV.\nShould be half of the beam energy.\nIt is precise only if the detector is calibrated.\n |
| ExposureTimeScalar: DevFloat | The exposure time per frame (in s). |
| FramePeriodScalar: DevFloat | The frame period (in s). |
| DelayAfterTrgScalar: DevFloat | The delay after trigger (in s). |
| GatesPerFrameScalar: DevShort | The number of gates per frame. |
| FramesPerCycleScalar: DevLong | The number of frames per cycle (e.g. after each trigger). |
| NCyclesScalar: DevShort | The number of cycles (e.g. number of triggers). |
| NProbesScalar: DevShort | The number of probes to accumulate (max 3). |
| DynamicRangeScalar: DevShort | The dynamic range - can be 1, 4, 8,16 or 24 bits. |
| FlagsScalar: DevString | Readout flags - can be none or storeinram. |
| ThreadedScalar: DevShort | This tells whether the postprocessing and file writing of\nthe data is done in a separate thread (0 sequencial,\n1 threaded). Check that it is set to 1 if you acquire\nlong real time measurements and/or use the storeinram\noption otherwise you risk to lose your data. |
| TrimModeScalar: DevString | Trims the detector and writes the trimfile.\nMode can be:noise, beam, improve, fix, offline.\nCheck that the start conditions are OK!!! |
| TrimFileScalar: DevString | Name of trimfile (without extension .snxx).\nCheck that the start conditions are OK!!! |
| FlatFieldEnabledScalar: DevBoolean | True when the flat field corrections are enabled. |
| FlatFieldFileNameScalar: DevString | File containing the flat field corrections. |
| RateCorrEnabledScalar: DevBoolean | True when the rate corrections are enabled. |
| RateCorrDefaultScalar: DevBoolean | True when using default rate corrections. |
| RateCorrDeadTimeScalar: DevFloat | The dead time used for rate corrections. |
| BadChannelsEnabledScalar: DevBoolean | True when the the bad channels corrections are enabled. |
| BadChannelsFileNameScalar: DevString | File containing the definition of the bad channels. |
| AngConvEnabledScalar: DevBoolean | True when the the angular conversion is enabled. |
| AngConvFileNameScalar: DevString | File containing the definition of the angular conversion\ncoefficients. |
| GlobalOffsetScalar: DevFloat | The fixed angular offset of your encoder -\nshould be almost constant! |
| FineOffsetScalar: DevFloat | A possible angular offset of your setup -\nshould be small but can be senseful to modify. |
| BinSizeScalar: DevFloat | The binning size of the angular conversion. |
| PositionsScalar: DevString | The number of positions at which the detector is moved\nduring the acquisition and their values.\nString format: np [pos0 pos1...posnp] |
| ModuleSerialNumberScalar: DevString | The module serial number(s). |
| ModuleFirmwareVersionScalar: DevLong64 | The module firmware version. |
| DetectorSerialNumberScalar: DevLong64 | The detector serial number (MAC address). |
| DetectorFirmwareVersionScalar: DevLong64 | The detector firmware version. |
| DetectorSoftwareVersionScalar: DevLong64 | The detector software version. |
| MythenSoftwareVersionScalar: DevLong64 | The mythen software version. |
| DigitalTestResultScalar: DevString | Result of the Digital Test(s):\n0 test passed |
| BusTestResultScalar: DevString | Result of the Bus Test:\n0 test passed\n |
| ExtSigResultScalar: DevString | Result of the ExtSig Command.\n |
| DataSpectrum: DevULong | Last image data. |
Commands:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| StateInput: DevVoid Output: State State Code |
This command gets the device state (stored in its <i>device_state</i> data member) and returns it to the caller. |
| StatusInput: DevVoid Output: ConstDevString Status description |
This command gets the device status (stored in its <i>device_status</i> data member) and returns it to the caller. |
| RefreshInput: DevVoid Output: DevVoid |
