Area Detector

At synchrotron facilities using the EPICS [B1] software for area detectors [B11] with the NDFileHDF5 plugin [B10], is possible to save Data Exchange files by properly configure the detector and the HDF schema attribute files .

Here are the templates in use at the Advanced Photon Source:

• 2-BM

  • Micro Tomography Instrument: A_station_hdf_schema.xml and A_station_detector_attributes.xml
  • Micro Tomography Instrument: B_station_hdf_schema.xml and B_station_detector_attributes.xml
  • Dynamic Tomography Instrument: dyna_hdf_schema.xml and dyna_detector_attributes.xml

• 32-ID

  • Transmission X-Ray Microscope: txm_hdf_schema.xml and txm_detector_attribute.xml and the generated HDF5 file: txm.h5 .
  • Micro Tomography Instrument: mct_hdf_schema.xml and mct_detector_attribute.xml.
