NAME
X-GEN - xdump
SYNOPSIS
xdump
[filetype [filename]]
DESCRIPTION
"xdump" provides a way of dumping the contents of any of the X-GEN binary
files in an ASCII format. The first few lines of the dump are sent to the
standard output. The entire dump is sent to the environment variable UDUMP.
The program can be run with no arguments, in which case it enters an
interactive mode. In this case the user can specify the file type and file
name in response to a ">" prompt, and the program prompts for certain details
regarding the kind of dump requested. Thus for an image dump, it asks you to
specify the (X,Y) center of the region to be dumped and the frame range to dump.
Otherwise, the specific file types that can be dumped are parameters
to this call.
- <Filetype>
-
is the type of file to be dumped.
- <Filename>
-
if specified, this temporarily overrides the current
-
environment variable named by <filetype> with the name <filename>;
if it isn't specified, the current value of that environment
variable is used.
-
<Filetype> can be:
- IMAGE:
-
Print a dump of the header of a detector image to the
-
environment variable XLOG. The image chosen is the one
currently associated with the environment variable IMAGE.
- CALDATA:
-
Print a dump of the header of a detector image to
-
the environment variable XLOG. The image chosen is the one
currently associated with the environment variable IMAGE.
This option differs from the IMAGE option in that it is
faster at reading the second and subsequent images in a
series. So if you request a lengthy series of images (e.g.
a 15x15 pixel dump around (X,Y)=(417,237) for images 28
through 38) it will run faster with the CALDATA option.
- AMASK:
-
AMASK is the file that contains the list of
-
pixels considered to be "active", i.e. we expect to be
able to make accurate intensity measurements there.
- USPLINE:
-
USPLINE is the file created by "calibrate", and it contains
-
the mapping that converts detector pixels to cm and back again.
- CENTROIDS:
-
CENTROIDS is the file that contains a list of
-
three- dimensional centroids, one for each reflection
found in a run of "spots" or "integrate" followed by "reduce -c".
- WMASK:
-
WMASK is the file created by "spots" that contains
-
the three-dimensional model profiles derived from the
bright reflections in each of 12 detector regions.
- UPARAMS:
-
UPARAMS is the file that contains the crystal and
-
detector parameters, as originally input or determined
by auto-indexing and which are refined in "refine".
- UREFLS:
-
UREFLS is the file created by "integrate",
-
and it contains h, k, l, intensity, and sigma, plus
numerous relevant run-time attributes of each reflection.
- MULTIREF:
-
MULTIREF is the file that gets manipulated by the
-
post-processing programs "scalek", "reject", "makemu",
and "stats"; it is produced by "reduce" or "mrmerge". It
contains a header and a record for each reflection that
includes information about each individual observation.
