Commands to setup the timing

• timing [mode] sets/gets synchronization mode of the detector. Mode: auto, trigger, ro_trigger, gating, triggered_gating (string)
• exptime [i] sets/gets exposure time in s. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• subexptime [i] sets/gets sub exposure time in s. Used in EIGER only in 32 bit mode. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• period [i] sets/gets frame period in s. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• subdeadtime [i] sets/gets sub frame dead time in s. Subperiod is set in the detector = subexptime + subdeadtime. This value is normally a constant in the config file. Used in EIGER only in 32 bit mode. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• delay [i] sets/gets delay in s. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• gates [i] sets/gets number of gates. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Returns (long long int)
• frames [i] sets/gets number of frames. If timing is not auto, then it is the number of frames per cycle/trigger. Returns (long long int)
• cycles [i] sets/gets number of triggers. Timing mode should be set appropriately. Returns (long long int)
• probes [i] sets/gets number of probes to accumulate. When setting, max 3! cycles should be set to 1, frames to the number of pump-probe events. Used in MYTHEN only. Returns (long long int)
• measurements [i] sets/gets number of measurements. Returns (long long int)
• samples [i] sets/gets number of samples expected from the jctb. Used in CHIP TEST BOARD only. Returns (long long int)
• storagecells [i] sets/gets number of additional storage cells per acquisition. For very advanced users only! For JUNGFRAU only. Range: 0-15. The #images = #frames * #cycles * (#storagecells +1). Returns (long long int)
• storagecell_start [i] sets/gets the storage cell that stores the first acquisition of the series. Default is 15(0xf).. For very advanced users only! For JUNGFRAU only. Range: 0-15. Returns (int)
• exptimel gets exposure time left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• periodl gets frame period left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• delayl gets delay left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• gatesl gets number of gates left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• cyclesl gets number of cylces left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• probesl gets number of probes left. Used in MYTHEN, GOTTHARD only. Only get! Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• now Actual time of the detector. Only get!
• timestamp Last frame timestamp for MYTHEN. Only get!
• nframes ??? Only get!
• measuredperiod gets the measured frame period (time between last frame and the previous one) in s. For Eiger only. Makes sense only for acquisitions of more than 1 frame. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
• measuredsubperiod gets the measured subframe period (time between last subframe and the previous one) in s. For Eiger only and in 32 bit mode. Returns (double with 9 decimal digits)
