Beamline control

Motors

Press motors

• Vertical movement: z1, z2, z3, z4
• Move all z motors: lvpz amount (relative, in mm)
• horizontal movement, perpendicular to beam: y2

Commands

• to move a motor (absolute, position in mm): umv motor position
• to move a motor (relative, amount in mm): umvr motor amount
• to know where is a motor: wm motor

Detector arm

• rotation: azim
• images at azim=90
• diffraction typically between azim=0 and azim=360

Slits

• vertical slit: fsvg
• horizontal slit: fshg
• slits at 500x500 microns (e.g. diffraction): umv fsvg 0.5; umv fshg 0.5
• slits at 1x1 mm (e.g. radiographs): umv fsvg 1; umv fshg 1

Take diffraction

The procedure used to be complicated but it was move into a macro. Simply type

take_diff

This is the old procedure (pre-2015)

• move detector arm to 0°
• close slits to 500x500 microns
• prepare diffraction software
• take diffraction in auto save mode:

umv azim 0; eh1fsclose; sleep(1); eh1fsopen; umv azim 360; eh1fsclose

• take diffraction, manual save mode:

umv azim 0; eh1fsclose; sleep(1); eh1fsopen; umv azim 360; eh1fsclose; eh1fsopen

Diffraction software

• xview, image height 512, image width 1536
• choose color scale (click on curve-like icon): typically, between 1000 and 0
• open setup, control settings, and set it to external trigger
• choose automatic or manual save and configure it
• click on camera icon, it will then be triggered by the shutter

To take radiographs

• move detector arm to 90°
• open slits to 1x1 mm
• move in z to sample center
• make sure your ccd menu is ok (option 1 should be YES, option 2 should be YES)
• type a command like

takephoto 2 -2 9 0.1

This will take 10 images, between 2 and -2 in z. Each image will pose 0.1 s.

Stress directions

With the setup on ID 06, vertical directions are collected at 0 and 180°. Horizontal directions are at 90 and 270°.

If your sample is under a lateral stress, d-spacings are small at 90 and 270°. In this case, 2 theta are large at 90 and 270°.

If your sample is under a compressive stress, d-spacings are small at 0 and 180°. In this case, 2 theta are large at 0 and 180°.
