dtprocess on-line help

dtprocess is a graphical user interface for the d*TREK suite of programs that allows one to process single crystal diffraction images to obtain a reflection list with h, k, l, Intensity and SigmaI. One may use dtprocess in either manual or automatic mode (see first-timer use and Getting started).).

With dtprocess you can:

• Setup calibration and scan info.
• Find spots for autoindexing and refinement.
• Index spots to get the initial crystal unit cell and crystal orientation.
• Refine crystal, detector and source properties.
• Predict reflections.
• Orient: Determine crystal goniometer angles to achieve a specific crystal orientation.
• Strategy: Determine a suitable scan rotation for data collection.
• Integrate a scan of images to get h, k, l, Intensities and SigmaI.
• Merge reflection list files.
• Scale/Average a reflection list that has multiple batches.
• Open and/or save specific data processing schemes.
• Edit d*TREK header files.
• Launch dtdisplay to view images and reflection lists.
• Launch dtcollect to collect images.
