+# Detector
+Definitions of the set of detector hardware available.
+
+ **active**::<BR>
+&emsp;Integer value that defines if the detector should be used (value of 1) or ignored (value of 0). <BR>
+&emsp;**Default**: 0
+
+
+ **type**::<BR>
+&emsp;String value that identifies which hardware interface will handle the detector behaviour. The set of allowed values is listed near the beginning of [`Detector.h`](https://gitlab.psi.ch/microspectro/pixelator/-/blob/master/PixelatorController/src/Detector.h#L23), for example:
+
+`enum Type { Base, Counter, Analog, Interferometer, Orchestra, Epics, Tcp, Zmq };`
