Small Angle Scattering techniques are now commonly used worldwide by scientists to characterize their samples. Collimator slit size opening is one among many parameters that the user can fine tune to fit his experiment in terms of the balance between intensity, resolution and transmitted beam size on the detector. Although every instrument in the world offer this possibility, surprisingly very few offer the possibility to change the beam stop size, located in front of the detector, to match with transmitted beam size. This article describes a device allowing changing beam stops remotely and reliably during an experiment, and its integration into an existing instrument. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
