Selected Daq Power Modulation Settings
Daq Power Modulation Settings must be entered for each Selected Beam Daq Device. The name of the selected Beam Daq Device appears in the title of the Beam Daq Panel.
Channel Settings
| Control AO Channel | Select the AO (Analog Output) Channel ID to be used for the selected beam. |
| Display Name | Enter an identifying name for the selected beam/control channel. |
| Max Cmd Voltage | Enter the voltage range to use for the selected beam/control channel. A default of 1.5 is provided. |
| Calibration AI Channel | Select the AI (Analog Input) channel to be used for the selected beam/control channel. Selecting "None" indicates that no calibration is to be performed for the selected beam/control channel. |
| Calibration Offset Voltage | Enter the calibration offset voltage for the selected beam/control channel. |
| Calibration Signal Source | Select either "Transmitted Light" or "Rejected Light" for the beam's modulation device that should be used to calibrate the transmission curve. |
| Delete | To delete a row, press the "X" on the beam/control channel row you want deleted. |
- Upon the selection of a new beam device, one default channel row is provided.
- The default entry contains th AO0 channel, with a default display name "Beam DAQ 1 CH 1", a maximum cmd voltage of 1.5, no AI calibration channel, 0 calibration offset voltage an a "Transmitted Light" calibration signal source..
- This row can be deleted.
- All columns can be edited.
