bug-fixes:

  • resetting the merged spectrum also prompted resetting the spectra A-B and B-A.
  • GUI wasn't adjustable to the screen-size leading to overlap some UI elements on some screens.

new features:

  • PHS (pulse height spectrum) section: it can be switched between the initial PHS showing the amplitude distribution of all triggered events and the PHS showing events which are exclusively contributing to the resulting lifetime spectra.
  • additional method for baseline correction added: The dynamic baseline correction method determines the baseline from an individual cell region for each pulse. The respective cell region serving for the calculation of the average/baseline is determined by moving a window of given size cell-wise starting from a specified number of cells prior to the maximum amplitude towards the maximum amplitude. The stop-cell is then determined if the voltage value of a cell within the window exceeds the first standard deviation of the corresponding calculated mean.
  • area filter plot displays the mean trace of the area upon the amplitude if the area filter is enabled/activated.
  • API/RC server integration: DDRS4PALS can now be remotely controlled (RC) provided by a TCP/IP and xml based API (application programming interface) server enabling the integration of the DRS4 evaluation board into any customized measurement environment related to PALS, i.e. synchronizing peripherical instrumentation such as temperature (heating/cooling) stages, cycle-loading machines or a vacuum control unit with the DRS4 evaluation board using DDRS4PALS software. A Python client pyRemoteDDRS4PALS is provided on GitHub.
