Slits

The entrance slits ENS_I and ENS_O, and exit slit vertical selectors EXSY_I and EXSY_O have their openings arranged as shown in Fig. 3.21. The exit slit openings as a function of micrometer settings are shown in Table 3.2 and Fig. 3.26 for the inboard (X1A2) and outboard (X1A1) branches respectively. The file /mnt/x1a/slitsettings.dat should contain more exact values for the slit positions.

If for some reason the motor step positions are completely lost, you should know of the following:

ENS_O: the 200 $\mu$m is close to being aligned to the beam when you have a micrometer reading of 62.1 mm in a measurement as shown in Fig. 3.22.
EXSY_O: the 200 $\mu$m is close to being aligned to the beam when you have a micrometer reading of 37.9 mm in a measurement as shown in Fig. 3.23.
ENS_I: the 200 $\mu$m is close to being aligned to the beam when you have a micrometer reading of XXX mm in a measurement as shown in Fig. 3.22.
EXSY_I: the 200 $\mu$m is close to being aligned to the beam when you have a micrometer reading of XXX mm in a measurement as shown in Fig. 3.23.
