chip, A/Ds and cooling capabilities.
The file contains four sections. The start of each section is denoted by [name], where name is the name of
the section. The following two sections are common to all detector.ini files:
• [System]
• [Cooling]
The names of the remaining sections are given by entries in the [System] section.
