Ophyd

ophyd is a Python-based interactive environment for instrument control at NSLS-II synchrotron beamlines.

Examples

Motors
- wh_pos() : motor positions
- mov(dcm_x, 1.0) : move motor
- movr(dcm_x, -1.0) : relative motion
- movr([dcm_x, dcm_y], [-1.0,-1.0]) : multiple motions
Scan
- dscan.detectors : list
- dscan(diff_xh, -1, 1, 25)
EPICS
- Access PVs:
  - caget()
  - caput()
- Epics signals
  - eiger1M_exposure_time = EpicsSignal('XF:11IDB-BI{Det:Eig1M}cam1:AcquireTime', rw=True, name='eiger1M_exposure_time')
Logging
- grabit : screengrab, copied immediately to Olog notebook.
  - 'i' to enter interactive mode, type text, then to exit+save do 'Esc' then ':wq'.
