Hi Mujin,

The algorithm that camserver uses for naming files collected when NumImages>1 is explained in the documentation here:

http://cars.uchicago.edu/software/epics/pilatusDoc.html#StandardNotes

This is the explanation in that documentation:

****************************************************************
camserver uses the file extension to determine what format to save the files in. The areaDetector Pilatus driver only supports TIFF and CBF files, so the extension should be .tif or .cbf. When saving multiple images (NImages>1) camserver has its own rules for creating the names of the individual files. The rules are as follows. The name constructed using the algorithm described for NDFileTemplate under File Saving Parameters<http://cars.uchicago.edu/software/epics/areaDetectorDoc.html#asynNDArrayDriver> is used as a basename. The following examples show the interpretation of the basename.

Basename            Files produced

test6.tif           test6_00000.tif,  test6_00001.tif, ...
test6_.tif          test6_00000.tif,  test6_00001.tif, ...
test6_000.tif       test6_000.tif,    test6_001.tif, ...
test6_014.tif       test6_014.tif,    test6_015.tif, ...
test6_0008.tif      test6_0008.tif,   test6_0009.tif, ...
test6_2_0035.tif    test6_2_0035.tif, test6_2_0036.tif, ...

The numbers following the last '_' are taken as a format template, and as a start value. The minimum format is 3; there is no maximum; the default is 5. The format is also constrained by the requested number of images.

****************************************************************

> i'd like to  make start filename like 'test_00001.cbf'

Then change your template from:

%s%s.cbf

to

%s%s_00001.cbf

Then the first file will be _00001, then _00002, etc.

Mark

Subject: pilatus file format setting..

Hello..

i use pilatus detector.adl...

but i will set file format.. %s%s.cbf..

the first filename is like this ...test_00000.cbf

i'd like to  make start filename like 'test_00001.cbf'

how can i make?

i am modifying the mxdc  in adsc q315 (from q315r to pilatus)

the pilatus detector is very fast. when the pilatus makes the files, the mxdc will recognize these files...

Maybe, Have the pilatus a informing function?

Could you tell me how can i setup the pilatus in mxdc..

i don't know to collecting algorithm by the pilatus detector .( updating image..fast made images)

please, let me know that...

Best Regards

mujin.
