Firmware 1.x writes the same three values under different names. Try the NXmx spelling first and
the old one only if it is absent:
detector/distance <- detector/detector_distance
detector/saturation_value <- detectorSpecific/countrate_correction_count_cutoff
sample/transformations <- sample/goniometer
This cannot change what a current file reads: every modern Eiger master carries BOTH spellings.
Measured on thirteen masters from ten facilities, firmware release-2020.2.1 through
release-2024.1.1 - all of them write detector_distance and countrate_correction_count_cutoff beside
the NXmx names, and a goniometer group beside the transformations one.
The goniometer is the one that matters. A goniometer is only ever set from that one group, so a
file whose axes are somewhere else was not an error - it was read as STILLS, silently, and the run
completed with the wrong answer. The old layout also tags no axis with transformation_type and
gives no vector, both of which ReadAxis required, so absence now means two different things by
layout: in a transformations group it still means "not an axis" (that is how AXISNAME_end and the
width scalars are skipped), while in the legacy group every leaf IS an axis and the companions are
recognised by name instead. A missing direction defaults to the one every DECTRIS master since has
written and says so in a warning rather than assuming it silently; a wrong guess there does not
index, so it is visible, and the rotation first pass tries the opposite sign anyway.
