Setting sample name to "PG and Si monochromators".

Setting sample type to single crystal.

Setting sample mosaic to 30.000 min.

Setting next scan number to 1

Initializing preset/counting configuration:

Preset counting mode is set to normal.

Setting the default preset channel to "time".

Setting the default preset value to 1.000.

Setting the default counting channel to "detector".

Setting the UB matrix to null, the lattice constants to:
a=5.0000  b=6.0000  c=7.0000     alpha=90.0000  beta=90.0000  gamma=90.0000
and the energy to 14.7000 meV.

Setting instrument plus-minus configuration to   -   +   -


Initial Spectrometer configuration:

The monochromator is PG002 with a d-spacing of 3.355 Angstroms.

The monochromator is Pg002 with a d-spacing of 3.355 Angstroms.

Collimation:  48-40-40-120

The spectrometer is configured to have a fixed final energy of 14.7000 meV.


The username/password request for web access was cancelled or the dialog box timed out.
Web-based control will not function until these are set.  This can be accomplished using the 'webcontrol' command.
