The Slope Box Extension (SBX) unit contains a power board and pickoff card along with an optional Raspberry Pi computer. These electronics replace ALL utility of the VXI system while providing additional functionality previously unavailable.
The R-Pi contains an EPICS database allowing users to read and write PVs:
- The Slope Box for detector controls and monitoring (HV, Temps, etc.)
- The SBX Pickoff for control of signal processing functions (DC offset, gain range, Preamp Reset Clamping, etc.)
