Description of the MCA527 Firmware Commands
Name
CMD_QUERY_UF6_INFO
Compatibility
Compatible to the MCA166 command.
Execution right
Not necessary
Description
The command reads current dead time, real time, the integral, begin and end of up to three ROIs.
This is very useful during a running measurement because in this way there is no need for
transferring parts of the spectrum data for calculating the ROI integrals itself. The name of the
command refers to its original usage. The command is, of course, usable for all applications that
need this information.
