4.3 Beamline Configuration

This window allows calibrating and setting the
actual beamline configuration. Its proper configuration is of paramount importance in
order to insure a correct functionality of the system and a meaningful calibration of
the units used to display data. Users can access this window by clicking on Settings-
>Beamline.

A quick overview of the available beamline configuration options are represented in
the following sections.

4.3.1 Beam Position Monitor

The BPM (Beam Position Monitor) section allows the input of the correct phBPM
geometry, by selecting how the readout channels of the
phBPM. It also provides the capability to properly calibrate the position-sensitive
detector by inserting the experimentally determined scaling factors in the beam
position calculations.

top/bottom & left/right of a scattering foil), the X-Y and Intensity (I
