This blog post is where I'll document the process of setting a gain mode for the epix10ka small (no.1) and taking pedestals.


(How to create a new gain mode text file to upload)


10k small set up and powered up in the Marietta. Humidity and temp stabilizing around 5% and 8.9 deg C. First gain mode manually configured is AHL Forced L: tr_bit = 1 and mode_4.txt loaded in (pixel map is a brick red or brimstone red) → run 27. Second gain mode configured is AML forced L: tr_bit = 0 and mode_4.txt (pixel map still same brick red color) → run 28.

Both configs tested just in case something would be different between the two, not that there's any reason to assume it's different.

Pedestals:


Next step: compare this to Fixed Low array, map the difference array.
