Cycle-bound Properties

In FESA3 7.0.0, the concept of multiplexing is separated into Multiplexing and Cycle-bound.

Multiplexed Setting Fields and Properties have a setting value for each beam process. Non-multiplexed Setting Fields and Properties have a single setting value.

Cycle-bound Acquisition Fields and Properties have a rolling-buffer and store acquisition values together with their timing cycle. Non cycle-bound Acquisition Fields and Properties store a single acquisition value.

A device may be configures as:

Multiplexed Cycle-bound (previously "Mutiplexed")	Multiplexed Non-Cycle-bound
Non-Multiplexed Cycle-bound	Non-Multiplexed Non-Cycle-bound (previously Non-Multiplexed)

If the Cycle-bound attribute is not specified in the instance file, it will take the value of the Multiplexed attribute.

The attribute "multiplexed" for Acquisition Properties and Acquisition Data becomes "cycle-bound". A migrator will automatically change the design and instance files.
