Extracts irradiation times, dose and times since last irradiation, from a Freiberg Instruments XSYG-file. These information can be further used to update an existing BINX-file.
extract_IrradiationTimes(
object,
file.BINX,
recordType = c("irradiation (NA)", "IRSL (UVVIS)", "OSL (UVVIS)", "TL (UVVIS)"),
compatibility.mode = TRUE,
txtProgressBar = TRUE
)An RLum.Results object is returned with the following structure:
.. $irr.times (data.frame)
If a BINX-file path and name is set, the output will be additionally
transferred into a new BINX-file with the function name as suffix. For the
output the path of the input BINX-file itself is used. Note that this will
not work if the input object is a file path to an XSYG-file, instead of a
link to only one file. In this case the argument input for file.BINX is ignored.
In the self call mode (input is a list of RLum.Analysis objects
a list of RLum.Results is returned.
character, RLum.Analysis or list (required):
path and file name of the XSYG file or an RLum.Analysis
produced by the function read_XSYG2R;
alternatively a list of RLum.Analysis can be provided.
Note: If an RLum.Analysis is used, any input for
the arguments file.BINX and recordType will be ignored!
character (optional): path and file name of an existing BINX-file. If a file name is provided the file will be updated with the information from the XSYG file in the same folder as the original BINX-file.
Note: The XSYG and the BINX-file have to be originate from the same measurement!
character (with default):
select relevant curves types from the XSYG file or RLum.Analysis
object. As the XSYG-file format comprises much more information than usually
needed for routine data analysis and allowed in the BINX-file format, only
the relevant curves are selected by using the function
get_RLum. The argument recordType works as
described for this function.
Note: A wrong selection will causes a function error. Please change this argument only if you have reasons to do so.
logical (with default): this option is parsed only if a BIN/BINX file is produced and it will reset all position values to a max. value of 48, cf.write_R2BIN
logical (with default):
enables TRUE or disables FALSE the progression bars during import and export

The function was written to compensate missing information in the BINX-file output of Freiberg Instruments lexsyg readers. As all information are available within the XSYG-file anyway, these information can be extracted and used for further analysis or/and to stored in a new BINX-file, which can be further used by other software, e.g., Analyst (Geoff Duller).
Typical application example: g-value estimation from fading measurements using the Analyst or any other self written script.
Beside the some simple data transformation steps the function applies the functions read_XSYG2R, read_BIN2R, write_R2BIN for data import and export.

## (1) - example for your own data
##
## set files and run function

#
# output <- extract_IrradiationTimes(file.XSYG = file.XSYG, file.BINX = file.BINX)
