Detector
The values stored in Detector represent the fixed values, variable values modified during the acquisition go in DetectorSettings
-
ManufacturerSpec
-
This is the base from which many microscope components are extended. It provides attributes for recording common properties of these components all of which are optional.
-
Manufacturer
- The manufacturer of the component. [plain text string]
-
Model
- The Model of the component. [plain text string]
-
SerialNumber
- The serial number of the component. [plain text string]
-
LotNumber
- The lot number of the component. [plain text string]

-
Gain
- The Detector Gain for this detector, as a float. [units:none] {used:CCD,EMCCD,PMT} - Roger: Generic
-
Voltage
- The Voltage of the detector (e.g. PMT voltage) as a float. volts[V] {used:PMT}
-
Offset
- The Detector Offset. [units:none] {used:CCD,EMCCD}
-
Zoom
- The fixed Zoom for a detector. [units:none] {used:PMT}
-
AmplificationGain
- Gain applied to the detector signal. This is the electronic gain (as apposed to the inherent gain) that is set for the detector. [units:none] {used:EMCCD#EMGain} - Roger: Used everywhere "multiplier"
-

DetectorSettings
The values stored in DetectorSettings represent the variable values modified during the acquisition.
-
Offset
- The Offset of the detector. [units none] {used:CCD,EMCCD}
-
Gain
- The Gain of the detector. [units:none] {used:CCD,EMCCD,PMT}
-
Voltage
- The Voltage of the detector. volts[V] {used:PMT}
-
Zoom
- The Zoom or "Confocal Zoom" or "Scan Zoom" for a detector. [units:none] {used:PMT}
-
ReadOutRate
- The speed at which the detector can count pixels. {used:CCD,EMCCD} Units of ReadOutRate is MHz. This is the bytes per second that can be read from the detector (like a baud rate). megahertz[MHz]
-
Binning
-
Represents the number of pixels that are combined to form larger pixels. {used:CCD,EMCCD} Enum with values:
- 1x1
- 2x2
- 4x4
- 8x8
- Other
-
Represents the number of pixels that are combined to form larger pixels. {used:CCD,EMCCD} Enum with values:
-
Integration
- This is the number of sequential frames that get averaged, to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. [units:none] {used:CCD,EMCCD}
Actions from last meeting:
Action: To define a list of the valid date-time ranges used by various libraries and databases we use. And in DB do we use timestamp or timestamp+timezone. https://github.com/qidane/bioformats/compare/lightsource...timestamps
Action: Update the graffle and send to nitpick then develop with deadlines for comments. - DONE
- Also have xsd-fu running on new schema.http://github.com/qidane/bioformats/compare/openmicroscopy:develop...lightsource
Action: replace with Separator/Terminator and CDATA block - DONE
- https://github.com/qidane/bioformats/compare/timestamps...map-annotation
Action: Produce list of candidates for annotation - DONE
Annotations
Unsure (to discuss)
- Experiment
- ImagingEnvironment
Elements already with an Annotation
- AnnotationRef
- Channel
- Dataset
- Experimenter
- ExperimenterGroup
- Image
- Pixels
- Plane
- Plate
- PlateAcquisition
- Project
- Reagent
- ROI
- Screen
- Well
- WellSample
Elements I propose to add annotations to
- Detector
- Dichroic
- Filter
- Instrument
- LightPath
- LightSource
- Objective
Element left without annotations
either these do not seem to be a good candidate for annotation, or they are in a 1-to-1 relationship with an element that is annotated/proposed.
