Detector settings commands

Commands to setup the settings of the detector

• settingsdir [dir] Sets/gets the directory where the settings files are located (string)

• trimdir [dir] obsolete settingsdir

• caldir [dir] Sets/gets the directory where the calibration files are located (string)

• trimen [n e0 e1...e(n-1)] Sets/gets the number of energies n at which the detector has default trim file and their values in eV (int)

• settings [s] sets/gets the settings of the detector. Options: standard, fast, highgain, dynamicgain, lowgain, mediumgain, veryhighgain, lownoise, dynamichg0, fixgain1, fixgain2, forceswitchg1, forceswitchg2.
  In Eiger, only sets in client shared memory. Use threshold or thresholdnotb to pass to detector. Gets from detector.

• threshold [eV] [sett] sets/gets the detector threshold in eV. sett is optional and if provided also sets the settings. Use this for Eiger instead of settings.

• thresholdnotb [eV] [sett] sets/gets the detector threshold in eV without loading trimbits. sett is optional and if provided also sets the settings. Use this for Eiger instead of settings.

• trimbits [fname] loads/stores the trimbits to/from the detector. If no extension is specified, the serial number of each module will be attached.

• trim:[mode] [fname] trims the detector according to mode and saves resulting trimbits to file. Mode: noise, beam, improve, fix. Used in MYTHEN only. Only put!

• trimval [i] sets all trimbits to i. Used in EIGER only.

• pedestal [i] starts acquisition for i frames, calculates pedestal and writes back to fpga. Used in GOTTHARD only. Only put!
