There are different possibilities to find out where the direct beam would hit the detector:


# use [[XDSGUI]] and load a frame. If you don't have XDS.INP, press the button generate_XDS.INP. There will be a green cross at ORGX,ORGY from XDS.INP. If that cross is not where you think it should be based on the beamstop shadow, just move the mouse to the correct position (middle of beamstop shadow), look at the X and Y position of the mouse in the upper right part of the panel, and transfer these values to XDS.INP, as ORGX and ORGY. When you go back to the Frame tab, the green cross should be at the correct position. 
# visualize BKGINIT.cbf (from [[INIT]]), or FRAME.cbf (from [[COLSPOT]]) with [[XDS-Viewer]], and click (left-mouse) into the middle of the beamstop shadow (or the attenuated direct beam itself, if it is recorded). Use the pixel coordinates displayed by [[XDS-Viewer]] as ORGX ORGY (in principle you should add 1 to both numbers, because for XDS-Viewer the pixels go from 0 to NX-1 whereas for XDS they go from 1 to NX).<br />Instead of these files written by XDS, one could directly use a measured frame. (If XDS-Viewer does not know the format, it will ask for NX, NY, and the size of the header. The latter is usually <size of frame in bytes>, minus 2*NX*NY .)

# use [[adxv]] for visualization. Otherwise the same as with XDS-Viewer. (1.9.7beta version works for the PILATUS detector at SLS)
