Timing commands

Commands to setup the timing

• timing [mode] sets/gets synchronization mode of the detector. Mode: auto, trigger, ro_trigger, gating, triggered_gating (string)

• exptime [i] sets/gets exposure time in s. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)

• subexptime [i] sets/gets sub exposure time in s. Used in EIGER only in 32 bit mode. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)

• period [i] sets/gets frame period in s. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)

• delay [i] sets/gets delay in s. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)

• gates [i] sets/gets number of gates. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Returns (long long int)

• frames [i] sets/gets number of frames. If timing is not auto, then it is the number of frames per cycle/trigger. Returns (long long int)

• cycles [i] sets/gets number of triggers. Timing mode should be set appropriately. Returns (long long int)

• probes [i] sets/gets number of probes to accumulate. When setting, max 3! cycles should be set to 1, frames to the number of pump-probe events. Used in MYTHEN only. Returns (long long int)

• measurements [i] sets/gets number of measurements. Returns (long long int)

• samples [i] sets/gets number of samples expected from the jctb. Used in CHIP TEST BOARD only. Returns (long long int)

• exptimel gets exposure time left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)

• periodl gets frame period left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)

• delayl gets delay left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)

• gatesl gets number of gates left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)

• cyclesl gets number of cylces left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)

• probesl gets number of probes left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)

• now Actual time of the detector. Only get!

• timestamp Last frame timestamp for MYTHEN. Only get!

• nframes ??? Only get!
