Attributes:

Name Description
nbModulesScalar: DevLong DCS4 number of active modules
nbChannelsScalar: DevLong DCS4 total number of channels of active modules
nbBadChannelsScalar: DevLong DCS4 total number of bad channels of active modules
nbBitsScalar: DevULong Number of bits to be read out,<br> thereby determining the dynamic range and the readout time.<br> Allowed values:<br> 4<br> 8<br> 16<br> 24<br>
triggerModeScalar: DevString Set/Get current trigger mode<br> <br> Available Trigger Modes are : INTERNAL<br> EXTERNAL_SINGLE<br> EXTERNAL_MULTIPLE<br> EXTERNAL_GATE<br>
frameRateMaxScalar: DevFloat Maximum allowed frame rate for the active detector modules.
nbFramesScalar: DevLong Define the number of frames within an acquisition.<br> Available only with the Snap command.<br> With the Start command, it is always forced to 0, this is mean that we request an infinite number of frames.
currentFrameScalar: DevULong Display the current frame number. Only relevant with the Snap command.
readoutTimeScalar: DevDouble Get the readout time (in ms).<br> It depends of the current resolution (number of bits)<br>
exposureTimeScalar: DevDouble Set/Get exposure time (in ms).<br> <br> Only relevant for these trigger modes :<br> NTERNAL<br> EXTERNAL_SINGLE<br> EXTERNAL_MULTIPLE<br>
delayAfterFrameScalar: DevDouble Set/Get the delay between two subsequent frames (in ms).<br> This is the delay between two exposures.<br> In the Mythen2 documentation, this data is called tafter or delafter.<br> <br> Only relevant for these trigger modes :<br> NTERNAL<br> EXTERNAL_SINGLE<br>
delayBeforeFrameScalar: DevDouble Set/Get the delay between the trigger and the start of the exposure (in ms).<br> In the Mythen2 documentation, this data is called tbef or delbef.<br> <br> Only relevant for these trigger modes : EXTERNAL_SINGLE<br> EXTERNAL_MULTIPLE<br>
nbGatesByFrameScalar: DevULong Number of gates within a frame.<br> <br> Only relevant for the trigger mode : EXTERNAL_GATE<br>
badChannelInterpolationScalar: DevBoolean Turns on or off the interpolation routine for bad channels.<br> <br> When enabled, the number of counts for a bad channel is set to the average number of counts of the next lower and the next upper working channels.<br> <br> If there is no next lower (upper) working channel, the number of counts of the next upper (lower) working channel is used.<br> <br> When disabled the number of counts for a bad channel is set to -2.
flatFieldCorrectionScalar: DevBoolean Enables or disables the flatfield correction.
temperatureScalar: DevFloat Returns the temperature of the SoC die on the DCS4 in degrees Celcius.
streamTypeScalar: DevString Avalaible stream types :<br> NO_STREAM<br> LOG_STREAM <br> CSV_STREAM <br> NEXUS_STREAM<br>
streamTargetPathScalar: DevString Defines the root path for generated Stream files.
streamTargetFileScalar: DevString Define the file name for generated Stream files.
streamNbAcqPerFileScalar: DevULong Define the number of acquisition for each Stream file.
rateCorrectionScalar: DevBoolean Enables or disables the rate correction. After initialization, the rate correction is disabled.
flatfieldPathScalar: DevString Defines the root path for generated flatfield files (.ftf).
flatfieldNameScalar: DevString Shows the last loaded flatfield name.
fileGenerationScalar: DevBoolean File generation after a start/snap command
estimatedFrameRateScalar: DevFloat Estimated frame rate for the active detector modules.
frameSpectrum: DevLong Last number of detected photons in each detector channel.
flatfieldSpectrum: DevLong Shows the channel values of the current flatfield. Use the flatfield refresh command for an update of this spectrum.
