Class: DetectorSettings#
This holds the setting applied to a detector as well as a reference to the detector.
The ID is the detector used in this case. The values stored in DetectorSettings represent the variable values, fixed values not modified during the acquisition go in Detector. Each attribute now has an indication of what type of detector it applies to. This is preparatory work for cleaning up and possibly splitting this object into sub-types.
Attributes#
id : str (The DetectorSettings ID). offset : None | float The Offset of the detector. [units none] {used:CCD,EMCCD} gain : None | float The Gain of the detector. [units:none] {used:CCD,EMCCD,PMT} voltage : None | float The Voltage of the detector. {used:PMT} Units are set by VoltageUnit. voltage_unit : UnitsElectricPotential The units of the Voltage of the detector - default:volts[V] zoom : None | float The Zoom or “Confocal Zoom” or “Scan Zoom” for a detector. [units:none] {used:PMT} read_out_rate : None | float The speed at which the detector can count pixels. {used:CCD,EMCCD} This is the bytes per second that can be read from the detector (like a baud rate). Units are set by ReadOutRateUnit. read_out_rate_unit : UnitsFrequency The units of the ReadOutRate - default:megahertz[Hz]. binning : None | Binning Represents the number of pixels that are combined to form larger pixels. {used:CCD,EMCCD} integration : None | int This is the number of sequential frames that get averaged, to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. [units:none] {used:CCD,EMCCD}
