Spectrometer Instrument Control Environment


ei:

The ei command will put the instrument in a "Fixed incident energy" configuration.

The syntax of the ei command is:

ei value

where value is the stored energy value.  Note that this command does not drive the monochromator to this value of ei - to do so, type:

drive ei value



The ei command can also be accessed from the GUI by selecting the Experiment tab from the Setup top-level tab.  To change to a fixed incident energy configuration and/or the stored value of Ei, the green button at the bottom of the tab must be changed from "Monitoring ... Click to allow changes" to "Changing ... click to monitor".  Select "Fixed Incident Energy (meV)" from the pull-down menu, change the value for "Fixed Energy (meV)" and commit the changes by clicking on the blue "Update Parameters" button.
