Builds up the mapping between spectrum number and the detector objects in the instrument Geometry.
| Name | Direction | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Filename | Input | string | Mandatory | The name of the RAW file from which to obtain the mapping information, including its full or relative path. |
| Workspace | InOut | MatrixWorkspace | Mandatory | The name of the input and output workspace on which to perform the algorithm. |
Loads the mapping table between spectra and detectors from a RAW file. It fills the spectra to detector map object contained in a workspace. This algorithm will fail if the workspace does not already point to a full instrument geometry (which usually means it must be run after LoadInstrument v1 or LoadInstrumentFromRaw v1).
The association is one to many, i.e. a spectrum can have one or many detectors contributing to it. Alternatively the same spectrum can contribute to different spectra (for example in DAE2 (Data Aquisition Electronic) when a spectra containing electronically focussed data is created simultaneously with individual spectra).
# Create a workspace
ws = CreateSampleWorkspace()
# Replace the instrument in the workspace with HRPD
LoadInstrument(ws,InstrumentName='HRPD', RewriteSpectraMap=True)
# Map spectra to detectors according to an HRPD raw file.
LoadMappingTable('HRP39180.RAW',ws)
