10.6.2.7 FST? - Transferring Status Information

The commands RCC, RCR, and RDD will permit you to download raw binary data. This data does

not tell you under what conditions the data was acquired. More information needs to be

transferred from the LBA-PC if you hope to perform an analysis of this data.

The LBA-PC takes a snapshot of existing conditions each time a frame of data is acquired. If you

are downloading data from the LBA-PC, you can get a copy of the prevailing conditions that

existed at the moment the data was acquired by using the FST? command.

The FST? command returns the following information about each frame:

• Frame number

• Acquisition date and time

• Which camera the frame was collected from

• Number of integer and fraction bits in raw pixel

• Pixel scale

• Pixel units

• Gamma correction factor

• Lens setting

• X and Y capture location

• X and Y capture size

• Capture resolution

• Calibration energy

• Raw frame total equivalent to calibration energy

• Energy units

• Whether the Ultracal or reference frame has been subtracted and whether gain

correction has been applied.

• User comment

• Whether the frame is write protected.

The FST command allows you to change the following information about each frame:
