Purpose

Input File

A Ginga PHAD file.

Input Parameters

Procedure pl_phad.qcl requires a variable number of input parameters. The QX parameter system is used to read these parameters.

1. The name of the input PHAD file.
2. The graphics device.
3. If the PHAD file has a detector axis then the first and last detectors are required.
4. Detailed labels to be use on the plot (Y/N; the default is N).
5. Minimum and maximum Y-axis values to be displayed.

Note that:

1. The Y scaling parameters apply to all panels in multi-panel plots.
2. Parameter 3 selects how the input data is combined for the output plot, i.e. if there are N detector combinations in the file to be displayed they are combined (summed) into groups of N/par at a channel. Example: If there are eight detectors and parameter 3 is 2, then two panel plot is produced with detectors 1-4 on the first panel and detectors 5-8 on the second panel.
