Description

This instrument simply has a lab source, a few monitors and a multi-off object scene
by means of the Abs_objects component. By supplying a control file and a set of
off/ply-files a scene is put together which may be used for tomography style
simulations. The default input file contains a luggage with objects there-in.

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.

Name	Unit	Description	Default
SFILE		Name of file that contains the off/ply parameters for the scene	"input_abs_objects_template.dat"
ANGLE		Rotation around y-axis	0
posX	m	Displacement of scene along x-axis	0
posY	m	Displacement of scene along y-axis	0
posZ	m	Displacement of scene along z-axis	0
