we ran into a funny thing which may or may not be your problem.

It seems that between two versions of FIT2D the definition of the center of the IP changed. It was related to how FIT2D defined the top and bottom of the image. We found out in similar fashion. We ran calibrations and extracted the detector-sample distance at the synchrotron, then integrated data at home. Things weren't working out. We traced it to the fact that there was a different version number for the FIT2D at the beamline and on our home computers. We redid the calibration on the same FIT2D that we did the integration and all was well.

Dear All:

Recently we performed some measurements using a MAR345 detector. As we knew the ambient temperature and pressure lattice constants for the sample, we used this information for the sample to image plate and tilt correction calibration in FIT2D. We then used this sample to plate and tilt information to perform an integration of the same image that was used for the calibration. If we take the integrated data and perform a LeBail fit in GSAS we can not get a good fit to the data without introducing a zero shift (this does not make sense to me). Additionally, after refining the zero shift, the lattice constant that we get back is different from that used in the original calibration! Essentially the peak positions in the integrated data do not agree with the peak positions that were used in the calibration. Any ideas as to what might be going wrong?
