As of March, 2010 a  system for the automatic processing of data with XDS is available on all ESRF MX beamlines. 

The status of this auto processing can be monitored through EXI at various different levels:

 Data Collection Tab

As before, each time a data collection is started then the information is linked to the image prefix which is shown in the first column of the table. Experimental parameters for each data collection are still stored but they are not displayed on the data collection tab. These parameters can be seen by hovering the mouse over the Experiment parameters cell ( Note: a complete list of experimental parameters can be found by selecting an individual sample and then the experimental parameters table is available at the level below. )

 

Currently the autoprocessing is run in many different spacegroups. Displayed is the highest symmetry spacegroup which gives an Rsymm below 50% and/or an /Isigma < 1 in the lowest resolution shell is displayed.  This filter can be modified by changing the parameters on the top right hand corner.

In the first example of the table the spacegroup found is P6. The completeness of the data set is displayed as a bar chart and the lines represent the low resolution shell, the high resolution and the overall data set.  The lines are green when the completeness is greater than * % and red below this value.

The adjacent column displays the Rsym for each of these resolution shells and next to this column are the unit cell dimensions for this spacegroup. The resolution limits for each shell are displayed in the final column.

 

The Auto-processing Table

 

 By selecting a sample prefix we move directly to the auto processing tables if they are present:

 

With the pull down menu it is possible to select the appropriate spacegroup. Changing the spacegroup up dates the whole table with the data processing statistics for the processing and links to the appropriate output files.
