**Acquis.ini File** ==================== The initialization file acquis.ini contains definition sections for each transient recorder. The data here corresponds to the values set while configuring the transient recorders. The data entries may appear in a different order within a section named [TR
]. Here, the section for the transient recorder with the device address 0 is shown .. _TRini-File: Transient recorder configuration -------------------------------- .. code-block:: RST [TR0] Range = 1 Pretrigger = 0 FreqDivider = 2 ShotLimit = 1000 Threshold = 0 Discriminator = 0 AnalogA = TRUE Analog B = False Analog C = False AnalogD = False PC A = TRUE PC B = False PC C = False PC D = False PolarisationA = 1 polarisationB = 2 PolarisationC = 3 PolarisationD = 4 PolarisationApc = 1 PolarisationBpc = 2 PolarisationCpc = 3 PolarisationDpc = 4 A-binsA = 16000 A-BinsB = 16000 A-binsC = 16000 A-binsD = 16000 P-binsA = 16000 P-binsB = 14800 P-binsC = 1000 P-binsD = 16000 WavelengthA = 534,000000 WavelengthB = 512,000000 WavelengthC = 513,000000 WavelengthD = 514,000000 WavelengthApc = 600,000000 WavelengthBpc = 610,000000 WavelengthCpc = 620,000000 WavelengthDpc = 630,000000 LaserA = 1 LaserB = 2 LaserC = 3 LaserD = 4 PM = 850,000000 PM2 = 3,000000 PM3 = 5,000000 PM4 = 7,000000 PM1pc = 850,000000 PM2pc = 4,000000 PM3pc = 6,000000 PM4pc = 8,000000 A section always begins with [TR] where n indicates the address of the transient recorder. * **Range** : input range of the transient recorder. Valid values are * 0 : 0 .. 500 mV * 1 : 0 .. 100 mV * 2 : 0 .. 20 mV * **FreqDivider** : Set the frequency divider, it changes the sampling rate before the summation, so with FreqDivider value of 0 and bin width 3.75m you will get 3.75m range resolution. With a FreqDivider of 8 you will get 30m range resolution. Valid values are 0, 1, 2 ,4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128. * **ShotLimit** : Sets the maximum number of shots that the TR should acquire. valid values are arbitrary number between 2 and 64K * **Discriminator** : level between 0 and 63 * **Pretrigger**: The pretrigger is 1/16 of the hardware tracelength. The command can be used only if the ``TRHardwareInfo['HWCAP']`` contains the bits 0xF9 * 0 : disable pretrigger * 1 : enable pretrigger For more info see https://licel.com/manuals/TR40-16bit3U_Manual.pdf#subsection.3.8 * **Threshold** : Sets the damping state to either on or off * 0 : damping state off * 1 : damping state on | * **AnalogA** : (TRUE | FALSE) Enable or disable analog acquisition for memory A * **Analog B** : (TRUE | FALSE) Enable or disable analog acquisition for memory B * **Analog C** : (TRUE | FALSE) Enable or disable analog acquisition for memory C * **AnalogD** : (TRUE | FALSE) Enable or disable analog acquisition for memory D | * **A-binsA** : number of analogue bins to be read out from mem A. :ref:`max number of bins ` * **A-BinsB** : number of analogue bins to be read out from mem B. :ref:`max number of bins ` * **A-binsC** : number of analogue bins to be read out from mem C. :ref:`max number of bins ` * **A-binsD** : number of analogue bins to be read out from mem D. :ref:`max number of bins ` | * **P-binsA**: number of photon counting bins to be read out from mem A. :ref:`max number of bins ` * **P-binsB**: number of photon counting bins to be read out from mem B. :ref:`max number of bins ` * **P-binsC**: number of photon counting bins to be read out from mem C. :ref:`max number of bins ` * **P-binsD**: number of photon counting bins to be read out from mem D. :ref:`max number of bins ` | * **PC A** : (TRUE | FALSE) Enable or disable photon counting acquisition for memory A * **PC B** : (TRUE | FALSE) Enable or disable photon counting acquisition for memory B * **PC C** : (TRUE | FALSE) Enable or disable photon counting acquisition for memory C * **PC D** : (TRUE | FALSE) Enable or disable photon counting acquisition for memory D | * **PolarisationA** : detection polarization for analogue mem A. see :ref:`Polarisation value ` * **PolarisationB** : detection polarization for analogue mem B. see :ref:`Polarisation value ` * **PolarisationC** : detection polarization for analogue mem C. see :ref:`Polarisation value ` * **PolarisationD** : detection polarization for analogue mem D. see :ref:`Polarisation value ` | * **PolarisationApc** : detection polarization for photon counting mem A. see :ref:`Polarisation value ` * **PolarisationBpc** : detection polarization for photon counting mem B. see :ref:`Polarisation value ` * **PolarisationCpc** : detection polarization for photon counting mem C. see :ref:`Polarisation value ` * **PolarisationDpc** : detection polarization for photon counting mem D. see :ref:`Polarisation value ` | * **PM** : Photomultiplier voltage for analogue memory A * **PM2**: Photomultiplier voltage for analogue memory B * **PM3**: Photomultiplier voltage for analogue memory C * **PM4**: Photomultiplier voltage for analogue memory D | * **PM1pc**: Photomultiplier voltage for photon counting memory A * **PM2pc**: Photomultiplier voltage for photon counting memory B * **PM3pc**: Photomultiplier voltage for photon counting memory C * **PM4pc**: Photomultiplier voltage for photon counting memory D | * **WavelengthA**: laser wavelength assigned to analogue memory A * **WavelengthB**: laser wavelength assigned to analogue memory B * **WavelengthC**: laser wavelength assigned to analogue memory C * **WavelengthD**: laser wavelength assigned to analogue memory D | * **WavelengthApc**: laser wavelength assigned to photon counting memory A * **WavelengthBpc**: laser wavelength assigned to photon counting memory B * **WavelengthCpc**: laser wavelength assigned to photon counting memory C * **WavelengthDpc**: laser wavelength assigned to photon counting memory D .. _polarisationvalidvalue: +---------------------------+---------------------+ | Polarisation value | max number of bins | +===========================+=====================+ | 0 : none | 16300 bins | +---------------------------+ | | 1 : parallel | | +---------------------------+ | | 2 : crossed | | +---------------------------+ | | 3 : right circular | | +---------------------------+ | | 4 : left circular | | +---------------------------+---------------------+ Global informations --------------------- .. code-block:: RST [global_info] Location = "Berlin" Longitude = 13,384714 Latitude = 52,542598 Height_asl = 45,000000 working_directory = "C:\temp\" first_letter = "LI" Zenith = 0,000000 Azimuth = 15,000000 frequency1 = 120,000000 frequency2 = 100,000000 frequency3 = 10,000000 frequency4 = 10,000000 SaveOverflow = TRUE
