-autoreadouttime
˂time˃
time
˃ 0 or time = -1 in
units of 100ns
Sets the automatic readout time. If the acquisition time is
below the automatic readout time, the first frame is read
out automatically after the "-start" command. The
automatic readout mechanism is disabled if the argument
is equal to -1.
-autosettings
˂f˃
f
˃ 0 in units of keV
Sets the threshold to the specified value and loads suitable
settings for the selected modules. This command is
identical to the
“-kthresh” command and should no longer
be used.
-flipchannels
˂b˃
0: Disable
1: Enable
Enables or disables the flipping of the channel numbering.
In versions older than 2.0 the numbering was flipped
compared to the MythenGUI. After initialization the flipping
of the channels is turned off.
-get autoreadouttime
Returns the programmed automatic readout time in units
of 100ns.

-get flipchannels
Returns whether the channel flipping is enabled (1) or not
(0).
int

-get settings
Returns the settings of the modules
0: Standard, 1: Highgain, 2: Fast, 3: Unknown

-get settingsmode
Returns the last loaded settings. The result is of the form
"auto
˂thr˃ ˂e˃" (with ˂thr˃ being the threshold and ˂e˃
the energy) or “manual” if not all modules have the same
settings. In legacy2 mode the result string is of the form
"predefined StdCu or "auto
˂thr˃.
