Suggested Improvements

1. use acronyms in the description of detector parameters to be set
2. minor?: use numerical KRB properties for numbers instead of string (e.g., GAIN)
3. For MinValue et al. in description we could state the interval they refer to. Also, this interval, now hard-coded in the code as 1 second, could be put in the header as constant.
4. Verify the issue of enabling the pulse generation; its parameters are changed at the moment only when the enabling is set.
5. does it make sense to handle error returns from handle_reply calls?
6. minor: could have a dedicated function to reset the list-related variables?
