SPECS HSA3500 User Manual

HSA config files (*.hsa)
Entry Type Description
DacId string,
optional
Identifies the DAC generating the DAC voltage. The string must
have the format “<HSA no.>.<SLOT no.>.<DAC.no.>”.
- <HSA no.> is the number of the HSA and can be left out in case
of only one HSA.
The HSA numbers are defined in [Info]Hsa3500->HardwareType.
- <SLOT-no.> is the number of the HSA3500 slot containing the
power supply module (0 .. 13)
- <DAC-no.> is the number of the DAC on the module ( 0 for
3.5kV modules and current modules, 0..2 for 400V modules).
OperationMode unsigned
long,
optional
Operation mode of the HSA3500 power supply module. This
value has to be given in hexadecimal format, i. e. prefixed with
0x.
If the [ModeDef] section contains more than one DAC voltage for
the same HSA3500 module (= slot) the effective operation mode
is calculated by a bitwise OR-operation of all values.
For possible values check the corresponding table on page 54
and following.
Default: 0x00
Formula string,
optional
String with the name of the formula used to calculate the DAC
voltage.
The formula can consist of the following different parts:
- integers and floats
- references to logical voltages by their shortname prefixed with
$, e. g. $Ekin.
- the following fuctions are supported , where x and y denote
the parameters (the trigonometric functions expect their
arguments to be in radians):
pi (the constant 3.1415..); div(x,y); mod(x,y); sin(x); cos(x); tan(x);
sqrt(x); ln(x); log(x); exp(x); asin(x); acos(x); atan(x); abs(x); sign(x);
min(x,y); max(x,y); mean(x,y)
- Offset and Gain values.
References to Offset and Gain have to be used like: &Offset[0].
They have to be indexed with values as defined in [Info]
Hsa3500->HardwareType. In the normal case of one HSA this
index can only be zero.
For multiple HSAs, e. g.
HardwareType = 0:60,1:61,2:62,3:501
the index is the suffixed by the HSA macId.
They are saved in the HSA hardware and can be different for
each voltage range.
- Splines as defined in [SplineList] and [SplineDef] sections, they
have to be prefixed with spline_, e. g.
spline_HighMagnification_T8
MaxStep double,
optional
If this entry exists and is greater than 0.0, it gives the maximal
voltage step for a single DAC output operation. E.g. if the DAC
output is 50V, MaxStep is set to 10V and the control software
will change the output to 200V, then this is done by 15 steps of
40 HSA3500 / HSA3500 plus Power Supply
