B.60 Oriel (Newport) Cornerstone 260 Monochromator
Module name: oriel_cs_260
Description: Monochromator with two or three gratings, shutter, a motorized mirror to select one of two output ports and, optionally, a filter wheel with up to 6 filters. The number of gratings, the maximum wavelengths for the gratings, the minumum and maximum positions of the stepper motor for the gratings and if a filter wheel is installed (and how many usable filters are available) have to be setin the device's configuration file.
Controlled via: GPIB bus (IEEE 488).
In the GPIB
configuration file use "ORIEL_CS_260"
as the device name,
0x0a
as the EOS character and set set-reos
set-xeos
and set-bin
to no
.
Note that the device comes with the GPIB address set to 4
. This
address can only be changed via software. To do this set the GPIB
address in the GPIB configuration file initially to 4
(and
comment out a device that already has this address as well as
swxitching off). Then use the
monochromator_set_gpib_address()
function (from anywhere
before the EXPERIMENT
section) to set a different address. When
this EDL
script is run it will stop immediately during device
initialization after the new GPIB address has been set. Now again edit
the GPIB configuration file and change the monochromators GPIB address
to the new one.
