Typical definitions of 26ID scan detector channels
Detector Channel number | EPICS Process variable | Description |
D01 | 26idsclr1:scaler1.S1 | I0 - Integrated Ion chamber current after NES slits (change current amplification via yellow SR570 tab on main beamline screen) |
D02 | 26idcXMAP:mca5.R1 | Bi - Fluorescence channel from outboard detector, summed ROI#1 - find and modify with MCA software from User Tools tab on main beamline screen |
D03 | 26idcXMAP:mca5.R2 | Ti - Fluorescence channel from outboard detector, summed ROI#2 - find and modify with MCA software from User Tools tab on main beamline screen |
D04 | 26idcXMAP:mca5.R5 | Fe - Fluorescence channel from outboard detector, summed ROI#5 - find and modify with MCA software from User Tools tab on main beamline screen |
D05 | 26id:ccd.R01.Average | Integrated Intensity/Num Pixels for CCD ROI#1 - ROI#1 defines the total active chip area to be saved, so this is the total CCD intensity per pixel |
D06 | 26id:ccd.R02.Average | Integrated Intensity/Num Pixels for CCD ROI#2 - usually tightly defined around the outgoing beam - Contrast here is related to diffracting volume |
D07 | 26id:ccd.R02.XCentroid | X center of mass of intensity in CCD ROI#2 - This is related to lattice strain and rotation in the diffraction plane, scales away from center of ROI2 with signal/dark current |
D08 | 26id:ccd.R02.YCentroid | Y center of mass of intensity in CCD ROI#2 - This is related to lattice rotation out of the diffraction plane, scales away from center of ROI2 with signal/dark current |
D09 | 26idcDET:userCalc3.VAL | R02.Average - R03.Average, Background subtracted average intensity - ROI#3 typically set around an unused area, this is useful for viewing scans in progress with low contrast |
D10 | 26idcDET:userCalc6.VAL | CCD Image number - If you are using the CCD DO NOT MODIFY THIS CHANNEL as it is necessary for Matlab analysis routines |

D18 | 26idpvc:userStringCalc3.VAL | Time of day - Units are fractional hours (ie 22.5 = 10:30pm) - use min and max of a linear scan to accurately estimate 2D scanning times, discontinuity in this channel indicates a hung scan |

D27 | 26idctsrc:bpmds:current:total | Alternate I0 - integrated intensity on all four quadrant diodes at the front of C Hutch - mono beam intensity measurement that does not depend on NES slit settings or exposure times |
D28 | 26idctsrc:bpmds:pos:x | Approximate X (horizontal) position of mono beam in microns at the front of C hutch - related to mirror piezo and DCM chi2 stability |
D29 | 26idctsrc:bpmds:pos:y | Approximate Y (vertical) position of mono beam in microns measured at the front of C hutch - primarily related to DCM theta2 stability |
D30 | S:SRcurrentAI | Alternate I0 - APS storage ring current value, useful for normalizing long scan data when the ring is not in top-up mode - unexpected changes of this value indicate orbit/steering loss or beam dump |
