| Name | Direction | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EventFilename | Input | string | Mandatory | The name of the neutron event file to read, including its full or relative path. In most cases, the file typically ends in neutron_event.dat (N.B. case sensitive if running on Linux). Allowed extensions: [‘_neutron_event.dat’, ‘_neutron0_event.dat’, ‘_neutron1_event.dat’, ‘_neutron2_event.dat’, ‘_neutron3_event.dat’, ‘_live_neutron_event.dat’] |
| PulseidFilename | Input | string | File containing the accelerator pulse information; the filename will be found automatically if not specified. Allowed extensions: [‘_pulseid.dat’, ‘_pulseid0.dat’, ‘_pulseid1.dat’, ‘_pulseid2.dat’, ‘_pulseid3.dat’, ‘_live_pulseid.dat’] | |
| MappingFilename | Input | string | File containing the pixel mapping (DAS pixels to pixel IDs) file (typically INSTRUMENT_TS_YYYY_MM_DD.dat). The filename will be found automatically if not specified. Allowed extensions: [‘.dat’] | |
| SpectrumList | Input | int list | A list of individual spectra (pixel IDs) to read, specified as e.g. 10:20. Only used if set. | |
| ChunkNumber | Input | number | Optional | If loading the file by sections (‘chunks’), this is the section number of this execution of the algorithm. |
| TotalChunks | Input | number | Optional | If loading the file by sections (‘chunks’), this is the total number of sections. |
| UseParallelProcessing | Input | string | Auto | Use multiple cores for loading the data? Auto: Use serial loading for small data sets, parallel for large data sets. Serial: Use a single core. Parallel: Use all available cores. Allowed values: [‘Auto’, ‘Serial’, ‘Parallel’] |
| OutputWorkspace | Output | IEventWorkspace | Mandatory | The name of the workspace that will be created, filled with the read-in data and stored in the [[Analysis Data Service]]. |
| EventLogTableWorkspace | Output | TableWorkspace | Mandatory | Optional output table workspace containing the event log (pixel) information. |
| FunctionMode | Input | string | LoadData | Function mode for different purpose. Allowed values: [‘LoadData’, ‘Filter’, ‘ExamineEventLog’] |
| PixelIDtoExamine | Input | number | Optional | Pixel ID for the events to be examined. |
| NumberOfEventsToExamine | Input | number | Optional | Number of events on the pixel ID to get examined. |
| LogPixelIDs | Input | int list | Pixel IDs for event log. Must have 2 (or more) entries. | |
| LogPIxelTags | Input | str list | Pixel ID tags for event log. Must have same items as ‘LogPixelIDs’. | |
| AcceleratorFrequency | Input | number | 60 | Freuqency of the accelerator at which the experiment runs. It can 20, 30 or 60. |
| CorrectTOFtoSample | Input | boolean | False | Correct TOF to sample position. |
| DBPixelID | Input | number | Optional | ID of the pixel (detector) for debug output. |
The LoadEventPreNeXus algorithm stores data from the pre-nexus neutron event data file in an EventWorkspace. The default histogram bin boundaries consist of a single bin able to hold all events (in all pixels), and will have their units set to time-of-flight. Since it is an EventWorkspace, it can be rebinned to finer bins with no loss of data.
Specific pulse ID and mapping files can be specified if needed; these are guessed at automatically from the neutron filename, if not specified.
A specific list of pixel ids can be specified, in which case only events relating to these pixels will appear in the output.
The ChunkNumber and TotalChunks properties can be used to load only a section of the file; e.g. if these are 1 and 10 respectively only the first 10% of the events will be loaded.
