Scalar Attributes
Attribute name
Data Type
R/W Type
Expert
voltage: sets the voltage to apply to the detector. It essentially determines the photomultiplier amplification.For large countrates, it is necessary to operate at lower voltages since the large number of electrons that would be created could damage the photomultiplier. High Voltage
DEV_DOUBLE
READ_WRITE
No
forcedRemoteMode: set forced remote control ON/OFF. In local mode the program stored in the miniature controller continuously polls the status of the local/remote button and checks if a force remote mode
DEV_BOOLEAN
READ_WRITE
No
amplifierGain: adjusts the amplitude of the shaped pulses available on the signal out of the BNC socket. Usually pulse heights are between 1 and 10 V.
DEV_DOUBLE
READ_WRITE
No
peakingTime: Elapsed time between the arrival of an X or gamma photon inside the scintillator and the peak value of the signal out pulse. It is the an Integration time. A small value of the peaking time allows high counting rate but poor energy linearity. A high value allows good energy linearity but the low counting rate
DEV_DOUBLE
READ_WRITE
No
scaLowerThreshold: defines the lower voltage threshold which generates TTL pulses. Commonly an SCA is operated by setting an upper and lower levels. it is adjustable between 50 mV to 10 V, precision +/- 10 mV.
DEV_DOUBLE
READ_WRITE
No
scaUpperThreshold: defines the upper voltage threshold which generates output TTL pulses. Commonly an SCA is operated by setting an upper and lower levels. it is adjustable between 50 mV to 10 V, precision +/- 10 mV.
DEV_DOUBLE
READ_WRITE
No
windowWidth: the window width is defined as: dV = high threshold - low threshold. where high threshold = window center position + dV/2 and high threshold = window center position - dV/2
DEV_DOUBLE
READ_WRITE
No
windowCenterPosition: defines the center of the SCA voltage window
DEV_DOUBLE
READ_WRITE
No
