<para>
In the column <guilabel>Type</guilabel> the pull-down menu allows you to select either <userinput>SAMPLE</userinput> or

<para><inlinemediaobject><imageobject><imagedata fileref="buttonExport.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></inlinemediaobject> allows you to save a file with all sample names, thickness

<para>This can then be re-loaded at a later stage
if you will be using similar sample names with <inlinemediaobject><imageobject><imagedata fileref="buttonLoad.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></inlinemediaobject></para>
<para>
The Clear All and Fill from Sample 1 buttons are self-explanatory…
</para>
<para>Clicking <inlinemediaobject><imageobject><imagedata fileref="buttonNext.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></inlinemediaobject> brings up the following screen, where you can select your configurations:</para>
<figure><title>Configuration selection</title><mediaobject><imageobject><imagedata align="center" width="160mm" fileref="quokkaGumtree5.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></mediaobject></figure>

<figure><title>Configuration selection</title><mediaobject><imageobject><imagedata align="center" width="160mm" fileref="quokkaGumtree7.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></mediaobject></figure>
<para>Several configurations can be selected in this way. <inlinemediaobject><imageobject><imagedata fileref="buttonCross.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></inlinemediaobject> deletes any you have
added by mistake. Do not modify any configurations, only your local contact should do this.</para>
<para>In the <guilabel>Transmission</guilabel> and <guilabel>Scattering</guilabel> boxes you
enter the time the samples will be measured for. (If you would like to measure different
samples for different amounts of time, you can change these values for individual
samples later only for the scattering runs, not the transmissions). If you chose the
<guimenuitem>Timer</guimenuitem> mode, enter the time you choose in seconds. In
<guimenuitem>Counter</guimenuitem> mode, it will count to monitor and you should
enter a monitor count rate. A table is given on the right of the computer with monitor
counts, seconds etc…</para>
<para>Enter counting times in all the different configurations.</para>
<para>Once you are happy with configurations and counting times, <inlinemediaobject><imageobject><imagedata fileref="buttonNext.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></inlinemediaobject> brings up the following:</para>
<figure><title>Sample environment</title><mediaobject><imageobject><imagedata align="center" width="160mm" fileref="quokkaGumtree8.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></mediaobject></figure>
<para>Normal environment is left selected if running with the 20 position sample changer

<figure><title>Ready to run</title><mediaobject><imageobject><imagedata align="center" width="160mm" fileref="quokkaGumtree10.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></mediaobject></figure>
<para>A table now appears with your samples and configurations. (Scroll across to see all). If you do not with to measure all samples at all configurations,
you can uncheck the appropriate boxes. If you wish to do absolute normalisation, always leave a transmission measurement of the empty beam as we use this.
At this point the preset column can be modified if you wish to count for different times. You do not need to measure the scattering from the empty camera (position 20)
unless you are using this as a background (i.e. not using cuvette, solvent etc.). </para>
<para>Underneath the table an estimated experimental time is given. If you change individual
run times Update will update this. If the runtime looks very long, youve probably
made an error and selected to count to monitor counts but accidentally left the option
selected as time.</para>
<para>Click <inlinemediaobject>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="buttonRun.jpg"/>
</imageobject>
</inlinemediaobject> then starts the run you have setup. If you have not opened the
shutter, you will see a prompt shutter not open. Check its open and then click <inlinemediaobject>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="buttonOK.jpg"/>
</imageobject>
</inlinemediaobject> to start your run! </para>
</sect1>
<sect1><title>Starting an experiment using a controlled environment / running the same experiment multiple times</title>
<para>As per Section 1.3 except Instead of selecting 'Normal Environment, select Controlled
Environment. </para>
<para>Using the “Controlled Environment” option, you may then select a list of sample environment
controllers for your experiment. </para>
<para>Select <computeroutput>dummy_motor</computeroutput> if you would like to run the same series of samples multiple times.
</para>

<para>In the example above, 3 steps will be generated on clicking on the generate button, and the table will be updated as follows:</para>
<figure><title>Adding a sample environment controller</title><mediaobject><imageobject><imagedata align="center" width="160mm" fileref="quokkaGumtree9.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></mediaobject></figure>
<para>It is then possible to run the samples and configurations selected previously three times with a 2 second wait between each.</para>
<para>Select <computeroutput>/sample/tc1/setpoint</computeroutput> to use temperature control (needs to be correctly set up first by your local contact).</para>
<figure><title>Setting up a specific temperature controller</title><mediaobject><imageobject><imagedata align="center" width="160mm" fileref="quokkaGumtree11.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></mediaobject></figure>
<para>To enter the preset values for the controller, type the numbers into the text boxes and press “Generate”. In the example above, the samples will be measured at 5
different temperatures, between 1 to 10 degrees. Insert a small wait in seconds at the beginning of each step.</para>
<para>You may modify the preset values from the table if you do not wish to use the fixed step presets generated by GumTree.
The multi sample workflow can support multiple sample environment controllers in an experiment.
Press <inlinemediaobject><imageobject><imagedata fileref="buttonPlus.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></inlinemediaobject> button under the controller to add more. Each additional controller simply adds a one more nested loop to your experiment sequence.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1><title>Saving run numbers table for log book</title>
<para>As data is saved the run numbers appear in the table. Its then particularly useful to save this table with
<inlinemediaobject><imageobject><imagedata fileref="buttonTableImage.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></inlinemediaobject>.
This button exports the table as a jpeg file, which can then be printed.
Note that you only export what is visible on the screen. (If you wish to save all configurations you will have to scroll to the right).</para>
</sect1>
<sect1><title>Saving report file during experiment</title>
<para>At the end of a multi sample workflow, a report file is created. This file contains all the associations for the different configurations
(which run numbers are scattering files, which are transmissions, empty beam etc…), and simplifies data reduction.
If youd like to treat your data before the end, you can create a report file by hitting <inlinemediaobject><imageobject><imagedata fileref="buttonResultXML.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></inlinemediaobject>.
If you want to stop a multi-sample workflow early for some reason, make sure you <inlinemediaobject><imageobject><imagedata fileref="buttonResultXML.jpg"></imagedata></imageobject></inlinemediaobject>
first, as this is not done automatically. </para></sect1>
<sect1><title>Where is the data?</title>
<para>
Data files are written and updated every minute in the directory in /experiments/quokka/data/current. This directory is read only.</para><para>
Report files are in <computeroutput>/experiments/quokka/data/current/reports</computeroutput></para><para>
A read/write copy of the data is also copied to the directory named after the proposal number: <computeroutput>/experiments/quokka/data/proposal/xxx</computeroutput>. This data can be patched etc… and used to do data reduction (see section 3). It is updated approximately every 4 minutes.</para>
<para>At the end of the cycle the read only copy of the data and report files will be moved into a directory named after the cycle number, eg. <computeroutput>/experiments/quokka/data/cycle/030</computeroutput></para>
<para>Links to these directories can be found on the desktop.</para>
</sect1>
<sect1><title>Is my experiment running OK?</title>
<para>As the workflow moves through your run, messages will be displayed at the bottom in the console indicating progress. Any errors will appear in red.</para>
<para>Approximate counts/rates on standard samples. A table is given in the log book with approximate count rates for some standard configurations measured on H2O, D2O samples. You should have similar values.</para>
<para>Instrument dashboard: The dashboard displays a 2D image of the detector, most instrument settings and parameters such as L1 and L2. Do not modify anything from this dashboard.</para></sect1>
<sect1><title>Common issues</title>
<qandaset><qandaentry>
<question><para>I have started a workflow, but would like to stop it.</para></question>
<answer><para>Click on the any of the Interrupt buttons. A report file will be saved. </para>

<para>The following is a quick guide to treating quokka data. More detailled help about the macros is found in the help buttons in Igor. </para>
</sect1>
<sect1><title>Chose a workspace and copy across report files </title>
<para>Data can be treated either on the instrument control PC, or the NBI PC on the left in
cabin (DAV2-Quokka), or your own PC with Quokka Igor macros installed.</para>
<para>If working on DAV2-Quokka, please work under D:\Quokka Users. Any old (pre- April
2012) reduced data is now under D:\NSVIS.backup.</para>
<para>On DAV2-Quokka, your data can be copied across from J:\proposal\xxx where xxx is your
proposal number.</para>
<para>Report files are saved which associates the relevant transmission measurements with
the scattering files copy across the report files associated with your data to your
working directory. These are under</para>
<para>/data/current/reports on the Instrument control PC.</para>
<para>J:\current\reports on the DAV2-quokka PC.</para>
<para>Your local contact should give you the relevant sensitivity and mask files.</para>
</sect1>
<sect1><title>Open Igor macros</title>
<para>Open “Igor with Quokka macros”, then in the Macros menu select Load Quokka data reduction. You should be able to see the following window:</para>

<para>This step is only necessary on data taken prior to April 2011, later data does not
need to be patched, unless advised by your local contact. </para>
<sect2><title>Write correct λ and Δλ/λ to all files</title>
<para>Select patch on the raw data tab. With a * in the match string box, hit enter.
The files to patch drop down menu should then be populated with all the files in your
working directory. </para>

<para>The wavelength and wavelength spread values have been measured experimentally and
should be changed to 5.078 and 0.14, respectively. These values are for data collected
on Quokka after October 2010. Enter these number into the Wavelength and Wavelength
spread boxes, tick the boxes and click Change All Headers in List.</para></sect2>

<para>Enter the SDD distance of the configuration you wish to treat in the Match
String box and hit enter. If the SDD=1.31531, writing 1.3* is enough.</para>
<para>The drop down menu under Files to patch should now only contain the files at the
specified SDD distance.</para>
<para>Select a transmission file for the first configuration you wish to treat by usinig
the Display raw data in the raw data tab. Select the direct beam using the
marquee, right click and find beam centre. The X and Y-centers will be displayed
in the Igor history window (cntrl +J will bring this window to the front if it is
hidden). </para>
<para>Copy and paste the beam centre values which are displayed in the Igor history
window into the patch window. Then change all headers in List. By selecting
File catalog again, the table Data File Catalog will be refreshed and the
columns Xcenter and Ycenter should be filled.</para>
<para>Repeat this step for the other configurations you wish to treat.</para>
</sect2>
</sect1>
<sect1><title>Calculating transmissions</title>
<sect2><title>Read the report file &amp; create table</title>
<para>Select transmission in the raw data tab.
pick path then select the xml report generated by gumtree, then List Files. A table
is then created with all the correct file associations. </para></sect2>
<sect2>
<title>Calculate transmissions </title><para>Select the empty beam transmission file for the first configuration you want to treat by
clicking on the appropriate box in the table (should appear in the column
EMP_Filenames), and click set BCENT file on the calculate transmissions window
(this sets this to beam centre). Click Set XY Box and use the square to select the
beam centre. Right click and select SetXY box coords. Then highlight the
scattering files in the scattering files table at the configuration for which
youve just set the empty beam transmission, and click calculate selected files in
the Calculate transmissions window. The S_Transmission column in the
ScatteringFiles window should now be populated.</para>
<para>Repeat this step for the other configuations. </para>
<para>Click done when finished with transmissions. If you click File catalog the
data File catalog window will be updated, and you should be able to see the
transmission values. These are patched into the data files.</para>
<para>If your report is incomplete (ie you have stopped a MSW early and the different
files are now in different reports) you can easily modify the report by opening it
in a text editor.</para>
</sect2>

<sect1>
<title>Reduce data</title>
<para>This section is not complete, but gives a quick overview. More info is available in the NIST help document.
In the reduction tab choose build protocol. The following appears:

<para/>
<para>Leaving ask will mean that during the reduction Igor will prompt you to select the
file you wish to use:</para>
<para>Sample will typically remain ask.</para>
<para>Background is a scan of the blocked beam.</para>
<para>Empty Cell. If you are always subtracting the same empty cell/buffer run this can be
set to the empty file by clicking on the appropriate filename in the Data File
Catalog table, then clicking set EMP file (or the filename can be copied and pasted
in). (If you are using an empty cell from a previous run, you need to copy the file to
the current directory these will have different beam centres, unless obviously far off
warnings about this can be ignored).</para>
<para>Sensitivity. Take the sensitivity file in S:\Bragg\Quokka\Sensitivity and
standards\</para>
<para>or one given by your local contact. Copy and paste the sensitivity file name or select
it in the data file catalog, then set DIV file on the data reduction window.</para>
<para>Absolute for absolute scaling. Click set ABS params, then select method of
absolute calibration Empty Beam Flux. Select the empty beam transmission file, and
draw a box around the beam with the cursor, then click continue.</para>
<para>Mask. Take the mask file in S:\Bragg\Quokka\Sensitivity and standards\</para>
<para>or one given by your local contact, or make up your own!</para>
<para>Average can be left as is for isotropic data.</para>
<para>The data reduction protocol that youve now created can be saved Save Protocol. You
can now reduce a file by selecting Reduce a file directly in the blue Data Reduction
Protocol panel, or if you have saved the protocol, directly on the yellow SANS
Reduction Control panel. Via the SANS Reduction Control panel you can then select the
protocol (useful if you want to make multiple protocols).</para>
<para>During the reduction, youll be prompted to select files to use. Each time Igor asks
Do you want to add another xxx file? This is for if you wish to add multiple runs
together, if you only have one run, select no.</para>
<para>Reduced data are then saved in the file: QKK00xxx.ABS</para>
<para>To merge several configurations together: 1D Ops, sort button</para>
