CLEAR_ALL
This command is equivalent to the combination of CLEAR_COUNTERS, CLEAR_DATA,
CLEAR_PRESETS, and CLEAR_ROI commands.
CLEAR_COUNTERS
The live time and true time counters are set to zero.
CLEAR_DATA
The channels of spectral data in the window of interest (see SET_WINDOW command) are
set to zero. The ROI flags are not changed, nor are the presets changed.
CLEAR_MDA_PRESET
Clears all MCA preset values. This command is used to quickly clear the list of MDA preset
values.
CLEAR_PRESETS
The live time, true time, ROI integral, ROI peak, and overflow presets are all set to zero
(disabled).
CLEAR_ROI
The region-of-interest flags for the channels in the window of interest (see SET_WINDOW
command) in the currently selected device (see SET_DEVICE command) are cleared.
DISABLE_OVERFLOW_PRESET
Disables the overflow preset. Channels that receive a count when they contain 2147483647
counts, the maximum number of counts, will roll over to zero counts if the overflow preset
is disabled. See also ENABLE_OVERFLOW_PRESET and
SHOW_OVERFLOW_PRESET.
ENABLE_OVERFLOW_PRESET
Enables the overflow preset. Channels that receive a count when they contain 2147483647
counts, the maximum number of counts, will stop the acquisition if the overflow preset is
enabled. The channel that caused the preset to complete will contain 2147483647 counts.
See also DISABLE_OVERFLOW_PRESET and SHOW_OVERFLOW_PRESET
commands.
INITIALIZE
Returns the EASY-MCA (including flash) to the factory default settings, including resetting
the MCB Configuration instrument ID number to zero.
