This algorithm is also known as: LoadEventPreNeXus2

Properties

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	long 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.

Description

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.

Optional properties

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.
