<TITLE>Triple Axis Spectrometer Specific Commands</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<H1>Triple Axis Spectrometer Specific Commands</H1>
<P>
One aim for the implementation of the triple axis spectrometer in SICS
was to implement as closely as possible the command set of the ILL program
MAD. For this, there are two implementations: an older one where
most things werde done in C-code. And a newer one which implements
a relaxter MAD emulation. The problem with the MAD emulation is that
MAD relies on the order of variables and motors in memory. The newer
MAD emulation obeys this only for the qh, qk, ql and en variables.
This section describes the newer more portable TAS setup. There are
some C-modules and a lots of scripts which implement the MAD emulation.
</P>
<p>
The TAS requires the following initializations in its instrument file:
<dl>
<dt>MakeTasUB tasub
<dd>Installs the TAS crystallographic calculation module into SICS. It will
have the name tasub (recommended).
<dt>MakeTasScan iscan tasub
<dd>Installs the module with the TAS specific scan functions into SICS. The
TAS implements its own data format resembling the ILL TAS data format.
</dl>
Moreover it is required to add the peak center module, drive, exe and a lot of
variables: polfile, alf1-4, bet1-4, ETAM ETAS ETAA.
</p>
<p>
The scripts for the MAD emulation live in the file tasubcom.tcl. This file
will need little editing in order to cope with another triple axis machine,
just a couple of path variables will need to be changed.
