penepma_to_msa: Convert a PENEPMA spectrum file to MSA format
In jrminter/rpemepma: Processing of data from PENEPMA simulations using R

Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

Convert a spectrum simulated by PENEPMA into MSA format to be read into DTSA-II (where we have markers...) The data is scaled for DTSA-II.

1 2	penepma_to_msa(datFile, msaFile, e0, title, scale_fact = 1, owner = "Penepma", bDebug = FALSE)

`datFile`	string - the path to the 'pe-spect-##.dat' file
`msaFile`	string - path fpr the output 'my-spec.msa' file.
`e0`	number - the voltage in kV for the simulation
`title`	string - label for the spectrum (default "Penepma")
`scale_fact`	number - number of counts to set for minimum value. Adjust if needed to be sure the Duane–Hunt limit is displayed. Default = 1.0.
`owner`	string - label for the scientist
`bDebug`	boolean - default FALSE. If TRUE, it prints headers for diagnostics. Otherwise the function is silent.

None

It silently writes the .msa file

# Not run
# inF <- system.file("extdata", "pe-spect-01.dat", package = "rEDS")
# ouF <- './penepma/k411-15kV.msa'
# penepma_to_msa(inF, ouF, 15, 'simulation')
