Hi,

I'm trying to understand how the counting of Elapsed Real Time is done

in the $(P)ElapsedRealTime record found in dxpHighLevel.template and

seen on 16element_dxp.adl panel.

I can understand that each MCA record (seen in the mca_simple.adl)

counts its own Elapsed real time in the .ERTM field.

I was expecting that $(P)ElapsedRealTime would hold some other time

value - maybe cumulative for all MCA channels..

Also since the 16element_dxp.adl looks like a "top" level panel, for

controling 16 detector channels, why would we need to make a separate

instance of it (according to dxpDoc.html) for each detector channel?

Best regards,
