• A few configuration parameters are common to all modules, and their default values are set to be the same, but can also be set differentlyindividually for each module.

  Code Block

  # parameter name default value comment plot_every_n = 10 # If 0, don't plot till the end of the job. Else, display every N events fignum = 1 # "base" number for matplotlib figure numbering scheme

• pyana_plotter: This module is added to the end of the job, after other modules. It does nothing (yet) than control the display mode. Default is SlideShow mode.

  Code Block
  none none
  display_mode = 2 #= 2 # Interactive (1) or SlideShow (2) or NoDisplay (0)

  none none
  do_ebeam = False # Plot data from EBeam object do_gasdetector = False # Plot data from GasDetector do_phasecavity = False # Plot data from PhaseCavity do_ipimb

  different from the others. It does a "motor scan", displays certain values as a function of scan step of a motor scan. The motor name is given in the xtc file as the Control PV. There may be more than one control PV. It currently takes two scalar type inputs to evaluate the scan:

  Code Block
  input_epics # Name(s) of other scalars to correlate in scan input_scalars = # Name(s) of other scalars to correlate in scan False # Plot data from SharedIpimb

  Image Added Image Added Beam energy and position. Gas detector energy measurements

• Image Removed pyana_waveform: Plots waveform data from Acqiris digitizers. Takes a list of addresses, currently will make one plot for each channel of each device. To run this module by itself with pyana:

  Code Block
  none none
  pyana -m XtcExplorer/src/pyana_waveform.py <xtc files>

  Configurable options:

  Code Block
  none none
  sources = # string, space-separated list of addresses (Detector-Id|Device-ID)

  

• pyana_cspad: CsPad data is reconstructed in pyana_cspad.py. The image plot value limits are adjusted automatically, but if
  you want to change them, click on the color bar (left-click for low limit, right-click for high limit).
  The successive events will be plotted with the new limits. Revert to the original by middle-clicking.
  To run this module by itself with pyana:

  Code Block
  pyana -m XtcExplorer/src/pyana_cspad.py <xtc files>

  Options must be specified in a configuration file, or the default values will be used, e.g.:

  Code Block

  image_source = # string, Address of Detector-Id|Device-ID dark_img_file dark_img_file = # filename, Dark image file to be loaded, if any output out_img_file = # filename (If collecting: write the average image to this file) plot_vrange = # range=vmin-vmax of values for plotting (pixel intensity) threshold threshold = # lower threshold for image intensity in threshold area of the plot thr_area = # range=xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax defining threshold area

  Image display of the CSPad detector, background subtracted. This is currently the only display that has interactive features. A filter allows you to select events within requested intensity range.

This tool also belongs to the XtcExplorer package, and is used by the GUI. But the tool can also be run directly from the command line:
