General Remarks

4.1 The Installation

4.1.1 The Base System on Linux

This section displays the steps that are necessary to install Tango on a Sientific Linux V4 PC.

We start with the Installation of mysql.

$ tar xvf ./tars/mysql-5.0.24a.tar

$ cd mysql-5.0.24a

$ ./configure

$ make

root$ make install

root$ adduser -u 52 -g 2 -d /var/lib/mysql mysql

root$ /usr/local/bin/mysql_install_db --user=mysql

root$ cd /var/lib

root$ chown -R mysql.daemon ./mysql

root$ /usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql&

The installation of the object request broker (ORB):

tar xvzf omniOrb-4.0.7.tar.gz

$ cd omniOrb-4.0.7

$ mkdir build

$ cd build

$ ../configure

$ make

root$ make install

The installation of the event service:

$ tar xvzf omniNotify-2.1.tar.gz

$ cd omniNotify-2.1

$ mkdir build

$ cd build

$ ../configure

$ make

root$ make install

The documentation is done with Doxygen:

$ tar xvzf doxygen-1.4.7.src.tar.gz

$ cd doxygen-1.4.7

$ ./configure

$ make

root$ make install

Finally, Tango is installed.

30

$ cd tango-5.5.0/build

$ export CC=gcc

$ export CXX=g++

$ ../configure

$ make all

root$ make install

The next command starts the data base server.

$ DataBaseds 2 -ORBendPoint giop:tcp::10000 -v

\end{vaerbatim}

\begin{verbatim}

$ tango status

$ tango start

$ export TANGO_HOST=has107k:10000

edit /usr/local/bin/jive, replace NONE by /usr/local

edit /usr/local/bin/astor, replace NONE by /usr/local

The Starter server needs to be registered. This is done with jive. We use the Create Server button which

can be found in the Edit menu. Figure 4.1 displays the information that has to be provided.

Figure 4.1: Jive: Create Starter

Next we define TangoTest (4.2).

After both servers have been registered, jive looks like this 4.3.

The following command makes the shared libraries avaliable:

root$ ldconfig /usr/local/lib

The Starter server is needed by astor.

$ /usr/local/bin/Starter has107k &

These are important tools to work with Tango.

$ pogo &

$ jive &

$ astor &

4.2 Attributes

4.2.1 float scalar

The following piece of code shows how the double_scalar attribute of the Tango test server is written and read;

#include <tango.h>

using namespace Tango;

main(unsigned int argc, char **argv)

{

string attrName = "double_scalar";

double x = 4.5;

DeviceProxy *device = new DeviceProxy( "//has107k:10000/sys/tg_test/1");

DeviceAttribute *da = new DeviceAttribute( attrName, x);

try

{

device->write_attribute( *da);

}

catch ( Tango::DevFailed &e)

{

fprintf( stderr,

"TangoTest, DevFailed exception \n attr: %s\n",

attrName.c_str());

fprintf( stderr, " reason: %s \n desc: %s \n origin: %s \n",

e.errors[0].reason.in(),

e.errors[0].desc.in(),

e.errors[0].origin.in());

}

DeviceAttribute dd = device->read_attribute( attrName);

dd >> x;

cout << " received " << x << endl;

}

4.2.2 string scalar

The following piece of code shows how the string_scalar attribute of the Tango test server is written and read.

The Tango test server has to run for the device sys/tg_test/1.

#include <tango.h>

using namespace Tango;

main(unsigned int argc, char **argv)

{

string attrName = "string_scalar";

string str = "hello3";

string str_out;

DeviceProxy *device = new DeviceProxy( "//has107k:10000/sys/tg_test/1");

DeviceAttribute *da = new DeviceAttribute( attrName, str);

try

{

device->write_attribute( *da);

}

catch ( Tango::DevFailed &e)

{

fprintf( stderr,

"TangoTest, DevFailed exception \n attr: %s\n",

attrName.c_str());

fprintf( stderr, " reason: %s \n desc: %s \n origin: %s \n",

e.errors[0].reason.in(),

e.errors[0].desc.in(),

e.errors[0].origin.in());

}

DeviceAttribute dd = device->read_attribute( attrName);

dd >> str_out;

cout << " received " << str_out << endl;

}

4.3 States

Here is the list of Tango states:

Tango::ON 0

Tango::OFF 1

Tango::CLOSE 2

Tango::OPEN 3

Tango::INSERT 4

Tango::EXTRACT 5

Tango::MOVING 6

Tango::STANDBY 7

Tango::FAULT 8

Tango::INIT 9

Tango::RUNNING 10

Tango::ALARM 11

Tango::DISABLE 12

Tango::UNKNOWN 13

4.4 Performance

4.4.1 cpp

If the client runs on the local host (P4 @ 2.4 GHz) which is connected to the VME crate, we observe an IO speed of

2.6 kHz (10000 read cycles in 3.8s). If the client runs on a remote host (P4 @ 2.8 GHz), the speed is reduced to 1.8

kHz.

Here is the code.

#include <tango.h>

using namespace Tango;

main(unsigned int argc, char **argv)

{

unsigned long temp;

int i;

DeviceProxy *device = new DeviceProxy( "//has107k:10000/bw4/exp/t1");

for( i = 0; i < 10000; i++)

{

DeviceData devdata = device->command_inout( "Check");

}

}

And the make file.

CC = g++

TANGO_HOME = /usr/local

INCLUDE_DIRS = -I $(TANGO_HOME)/include -I .

LIB_DIRS = -L $(TANGO_HOME)/lib

CXXFLAGS = -D_REENTRANT $(INCLUDE_DIRS)

LFLAGS = $(LIB_DIRS) -ltango \

-llog4tango \

-lomniORB4 \

-lomniDynamic4 \

clean:

rm -f *.o core

4.4.2 Python

A local Python client executes at 2.1 kHz.

The test was done using this code:

#!/usr/bin/env python

from PyTango import *

t1 = DeviceProxy( "//has107k:10000/bw4/exp/t1")

i = 0

while( i < 10000):

t1.command_inout( "Check")

i = i + 1;

Chapter 5

How to ...

5.1 ... read xml files in Qt

This section shows how to read a prototype of xml file with motor information inside a Qt client using Qt libraries.

The xml file looks like:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<hw>

<motor>

<name>mot1</name> <type>stepping_motor</type> <module>oms58</module>

<device>bw4/exp/mot1</device> <control>tango</control> <hostname>has107k</hostname>

</motor>

<motor>

<name>mot2</name> <type>stepping_motor</type> <module>oms58</module>

<device>bw4/exp/mot2</device> <control>tango</control> <hostname>has107k</hostname>

</motor>

<motor>

<name>mot3</name> <type>stepping_motor</type> <module>oms58</module>

<device>bw4/exp/mot3</device> <control>tango</control> <hostname>has107k</hostname>

</motor>

<motor>

<name>mot4</name> <type>stepping_motor</type> <module>oms58</module>

<device>bw4/exp/mot4</device> <control>tango</control> <hostname>has107k</hostname>

</motor>

<motor>

<name>mot5</name> <type>stepping_motor</type> <module>oms58</module>

<device>bw4/exp/mot5</device> <control>tango</control> <hostname>has107k</hostname>

</motor>

<motor>

<name>mot6</name> <type>stepping_motor</type> <module>oms58</module>

<device>bw4/exp/mot6</device> <control>tango</control> <hostname>has107k</hostname>

</motor>

<motor>

<name>mot7</name> <type>stepping_motor</type> <module>oms58</module>

<device>bw4/exp/mot7</device> <control>tango</control> <hostname>has107k</hostname>

</motor>

<motor>

<name>mot8</name> <type>stepping_motor</type> <module>oms58</module>

<device>bw4/exp/mot8</device> <control>tango</control> <hostname>has107k</hostname>

</motor>

</hw>

And an example program for reading it:

#include <stdlib.h>

#include <QtXml>

#include <iostream>

37

using namespace std;

void getMotorInformation( const QDomElement &motor );

int main(int argc,char** argv){

QDomDocument doc("online");

QFile file("online.xml");

if (!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly))

return 0;

if (!doc.setContent(&file)) {

file.close();

return 0;

}

file.close();

// Take the elements that are children of the outermost element.

QDomElement docElem = doc.documentElement();

for(QDomNode n = docElem.firstChild(); !n.isNull(); n = n.nextSibling())

{

if( !n.isNull() ) {

if ( n.isElement() && n.nodeName() == "motor" ) {

QDomElement motor = n.toElement();

getMotorInformation( motor );

}

}

}

return 1;

}

void getMotorInformation( const QDomElement &motor )

{

// visit all children of the motor element and take the info that is needed

string name_for_motor;

for(QDomNode n = motor.firstChild(); !n.isNull(); n = n.nextSibling())

{

if( !n.isNull() ) {

if ( n.isElement() && n.nodeName() == "name" ) {

QDomElement motor = n.toElement();

QString text_my = motor.text();

name_for_motor = text_my.toStdString();

cout << "Debug: name " << name_for_motor << endl;

if(name_for_motor == "mot1") cout << "Debug: mot1 is the name " << endl;

}

}

}

}

This code can be introduced in a standard Qt client.

5.2 ... change attributes from inside the server

If the value of a Tango attribute is changed inside of any function of the class and not using the write function asotiated

to this attribute, the new set value is not send to the Tango database, and it is lost once the program is stopped. In order

to avoid that, the value of the attribute has to be changed using the funcion write attribute from DeviceProxy. Example:

Tango::DeviceProxy *device;

string name=this->device_name;

device = new Tango::DeviceProxy(name);

Tango::DeviceAttribute da( "Num1",attr_Num1_write );

device->write_attribute(da);

5.3 Use a spectrum-of-strings attribute in a server

// in the header file:

...

Tango::DevString ResultSim[100];

...

void TangoMotor::read_ResultSim(Tango::Attribute &attr)

{

char print_buffer[100];

sprintf( print_buffer, "mot1 %g", attr_PositionSim_write);

ResultSim[0] = CORBA::string_dup( print_buffer);

sprintf( print_buffer, "mot2 %g", attr_PositionSim_write*2);

ResultSim[1] = CORBA::string_dup( print_buffer);

sprintf( print_buffer, "mot3 %g", attr_PositionSim_write*3);

ResultSim[2] = CORBA::string_dup( print_buffer);

attr.set_value( ResultSim, 3);

}

5.4 Use a spectrum-of-strings attribute in a client

//

// attrName contains the name of the attribute

//

\section{... change between real and simulation mode}

A device property called SimulationMode tells each process (device) if it has to run in simulation

The property can be set using jive or any program accesing the Tango database.

{bf Example of cpp code:}

\begin{verbatim}

include <tango.h>

using namespace Tango;

main(unsigned int argc, char **argv)

{

//

// create a connection to the new IK220 TANGO device

//

DeviceProxy *device = new DeviceProxy( "tango://has107k:10000/exp/line1/enc1");

unsigned long simulation_mode = 1;

DbDatum simulation_mode_toput("SimulationMode");

DbData db_data;

simulation_mode_toput << simulation_mode;

db_data.push_back(simulation_mode_toput);

device->put_property(db_data);

}

Example with python script:

# Before running this script TANGO_HOST has to be set to the host where this device run.

# For example: export TANGO_HOST=has107k:10000

from PyTango import *

db = Database()

device = ’exp/line1/mcs1’

db.put_device_property(device,{’SimulationMode’:[’1’]}) # Add this property with this value

5.5 ... overwrite the default State method

This section shows how to overwrite the default State method in the Tango Server.It is useful for adding some check

functions looking at the state.

Example for the motors:

Add to the header file from your server (server name.h):

Tango::DevState dev_state();

Add to the server file (server name.cpp):

Tango::DevState OmsVme58::dev_state(){

check_move();

Tango::Device_3Impl::dev_state();

return device_state;

}

5.6 ... change the configuration of one attribute

This section shows how to change the display format of one attribute using a python script, instead of the ATK panel.

It is useful when due to a wrong setting of the format the ATK panel gives an error and can not be open. The python

script can be easily changed for setting any other configuration parameter.

from PyTango import *import sys

import time

def read_format(values):

t1 = DeviceProxy(sys.argv[1])

info = t1.get_attribute_config(sys.argv[2])

print "Current format for attribute"

print sys.argv[2]

print "in device"

print sys.argv[1]

print " "

print info.format

def write_format(values):

print values

t1 = DeviceProxy(sys.argv[1])

info = t1.get_attribute_config(sys.argv[2])

info.format = str(sys.argv[3])

t1.set_attribute_config_ex([info])

#

# main

#

try :

if( len( sys.argv) == 1 ):

print "Usage:"

print "->for changing format"

print "python set_attribute_display_format.py device_name atribute_name new_format"

print "new_format with sintax like %6.2f for float or %6d for integer."

print "Ex."

print "python set_attribute_display_format.py line1/exp/por2 Atribute2 %6.1f"

print "->for getting current format"

print "python set_attribute_display_format.py device_name atribute_name"

elif( len( sys.argv) == 3 ):

Motor Servers

6.1 Introduction

The implemetation of the motors in Tango is divided in three levels:

• Device Server Layer. It contains the Tango Servers that talk directly to the hardware. These Servers are base in

a Abstract Motor Class.

• MetaMoto Server Layer. It contains Tango Servers that talk to the Device Server Layer, defining different

combinations of movements for several motors.

• Client Layer. It contains Tango Clients, connecting to the previous layers. It displays motor information and

controls the movements.

6.2 AbsorberController

Tango Server for controlling an absorber consisiting of a given number of sliders. The control is done accessing a

Beckhoff PLC, that is connected via the Ads Tango Class. This class is already included in the same proccess as the

AbsorberController class. IP address and port number of the device are given as properties in the Ads Tango device.

pogo_html_docu/AbsorberController/index.html See pogo generated info for more details.

6.2.1 Properties

pogo_html_docu/AbsorberController/Properties.html See pogo generated info for more details.

PlcServer. Name of the ads tango device running in the same process as the AbsorberController device.

SimulationMode. 0 real, 1 simulation.

NbSliders. Number of sliders in the system.

6.2.2 States

pogo_html_docu/AbsorberController/States.html See pogo generated info for more details.

ON Idle state.

MOVING Sliders being moved.

FAULT. Sliders are not able to reach the set position in 5 sec.

6.2.3 Commands

pogo_html_docu/AbsorberController/Commands.html See pogo generated info for more details.

CheckMove. Returns 1 if sliders has still not reach the set position. It is called from the thread.

Move. Move to the in position the sliders set in the SetIn attribute.

State. Returns the device state. Default Tango Command.

Status. It gets the device status. Default Tango Command.

43

6.2.4 Attributes

pogo_html_docu/AbsorberController/Attributes.html See pogo generated info for more details.

StatusSliders. Spectrum of 24 elements (maximum number of sliders in the system) with a value 1 or 0 depend-

ing on the status of the slider (in error or not). Only read.

FlagMovementOK. Indicates if the movement has finished smoothly. Only read.

FlagError. Indicates if there is an error in any slider. Only read.

SetIn. Spectrum of 24 elements (maximum number of sliders in the system) for selecting the sliders that should

be put in (they will be only move after executing the Move command). The read value indicates the sliders

currently selected.

SlidersIn. Spectrum of 24 elements (maximum number of sliders in the system) telling which sliders are in the

IN position. Only read.

SlidersOut. Spectrum of 24 elements (maximum number of sliders in the system) telling which sliders are in

the OUT position. Only read.

Position. Read the current position (12 bits as decimal number). Writing a value will move the sliders indicated

by the input (decimal number interpreted as 12 bits).

6.19 FMBOxfDCM

Tango Server for controlling the Double Crystal Monochromator from FMB Oxford. The Server uses three classes:

FMBOxfDCMCtrl (Socket interface), FMBOxfDCMEnergy (for operating the monochromator as a whole) and FM-

BOxfDCMMotor (for controlling every single motor).

The code of the FMBOxfDCMEnergy class includes the FMBOxfDCMCtrl and FMBOxfDCMMotor classes. These

three classes are used to generate the corresponding libraries (libFMBOxfDCMCtrl.a and libFMBOxfDCMMotor.a).

The parallel and the perpendicular motor can be Oms motors.

For the Petra3 extension the Bragg motor will be controlled by a tango server developed by FMBOxford. This tango

server makes the conexion to the hardware, so the FMBOxfDCMCtrl class is not used any more (the commands to

the controller are sent by the same class that is controlling the bragg angle). The FMBOxfDCMMotor class is also

not needed, bragg motor is controlled by the new class and parallel and perpendicular are oms motors. The Server

distinguishes by the Beamline property which case has to be used. For the Petra3 extension beamlines the property

version can be any number lower than 9.

Calibrate. Set the current energy to the given value and calibrates all implied motors accordingly.

HomeAll. Only implemented for version 10. It homes all motors.

Shutdown. Performs an automatic system shutdown. Before starting the shutdown procedure the server checks

the shutter status, only if it is closed the shutdown is performed. In case the parallel motor is an oms one, and

because of that not moved by the pmac shutdown funcion, it is moved to its parallel limit before the shutdown

function from the pmac is called.

StartUp. Performs an automatic system start up. It uses the parameter PhasingMode for setting soft or forced

phasing (not if version 0). Before starting the startup procedure the server checks the shutter status, only if it is

closed the startup is performed. In case the parallel motor is an oms one, and because of that not moved by the

pmac startup funcion, it is moved to its parallel limit before the startup function from the pmac is called.

State. Returns the device state.

Status. It gets the device status.

StopMove. Stops the movements started by the Server inside of the loop looking if the movement has finished.

Attributes

pogo_html_docu/FMBOxfDCMEnergy/Attributes.html See pogo generated info for more details.

BraggAngle. Reads the position from the Tango server corresponding to the bragg motor.

Crystal. It is used for getting the right lattice distance in the energy calculations: 0 -¿ CrystalSi111, 1 -¿

CrystalSi311, 2 CrystalSi111 with crystal cut (in this case only the bragg angle is moved when the energy is set,

and the ExitOffset is computed as a function of the bragg angle and the CrystalCutGap. If the parallel motor is

in a position bigger than 100 when the crystal is swichted to 2, it will be moved to 99.5). For version 11, it is

determined by the position of the bragg motor and by writting moves the motor.

ExitOffset. Exit offset in mm. It is used for the motor position calculations. If the crystal is 2, this value is

computed from the Bragg angle und the CrystalCutGap.

ExitOffsetC0. Exit offset to be set when the crystal is changed to 0 using the ChangeCrystalAndRecalibrate

command. The value of this attribute is set together with the ExitOffset attribute if the current crystal is 0.

ExitOffsetC1. Exit offset to be set when the crystal is changed to 1 using the ChangeCrystalAndRecalibrate

command. The value of this attribute is set together with the ExitOffset attribute if the current crystal is 1.

MaskMotorMoves. Mask for avoiding that a motor prevent the energy to move (and the state of the device to

be set to FAULT) when the is not active, or the given position is out of limits. 1 -¿ Perpendicular & 2 -¿ Parallel.

PhasingMode. Allows the selection of the phasing mode: 0 -¿ soft, 1 -¿ forced. It is used by the StartUp

command.

Position. Reads the energy in eV, computed from the position of the motors. By writting moves the monochro-

mator to the written value (in eV), writting in the position attribute of the implied motor devices. If the movement

implies a change in the Bragg Angle larger than 10 degrees or outside the range (2.1, 55.5) the movement will

not be performed. In crystal 2 only the bragg angle is moved. If any of the motors, in case a pmac motor and

not an oms one is used, is not active (it is seen from a variable in the pmac) and this motor is not set in the

MaskMotorMoves attribute, the state is set to FAULT and the movement is not performed. The same happens in

any of the motor, in case of pmac ones, is in error (also read from pmac variables). If the position of the parallel

motor corresponding to the given energy is below 25 mm, the motor will be moved to 25 mm. If the position of

the perpendicular motor corresponding to the given energy is below 9 mm a Tango exception will be thrown and

the energy movement will not be done. If the movement is done to bigger Bragg positions and the change in the

Bragg angle is bigger than one degree, the bragg movement will be done only after the parallel axis has reached

the soll position for the new given energy. The state is set to FAULT if any of the written positions is out of limits

(for motors not set in the MaskMotorMoves attribute) but the rest of the motors are moved.

PositionAccuracy. Reads PositionAccuracy from the Bragg Motor device. Value in eV. Only implemented for

versions 1 and 2.

PositionSim Setting this attribute does not involve any move. Instead the attribute ResultSim is filled with the

calculated final positions.

PseudoChannelCutMode. If set to 1 this mode is selected. The parallel axis will not be moved. Not movemente

will be done if the position of the bragg angle is outside 5 degress of the position when this mode is set, or if the

calculated parallel position is outside 15 mm from the current position.

ResultSim An array of strings that returns the calculated final positions after the PositionSim attribute has been

set.

UnitLimitMax. Used for limiting the position (only if bigger than UnitLimitMin).

UnitLimitMin. Used for limiting the position (only if smaller than UnitLimitMin).

UpdateStatusRate. Rate for updating checking if the motor is still moving during a movement (in s). If it is less

or equal than 0 or bigger than 1, the program set it to 1.

6.22 Hexapod

Tango Server for controlling Hexapods from Physik Instrument:

• M-850 and M-840 Hexapod, with command syntax version 1.0

• H-824, with command syntax version 2.0

• F-206, with command syntax version 1.0

The Server uses three classes: HexapodCtrl (Socket interface), HexapodConfig (with attributes for all axis), Hexapod-

Motor (for controlling every single axis).

The code of the HexapodMotor class includes the HexapodCtrl and HexapodConfig classes. These two classes are

used to generate the corresponding libraries (libHexapodCtrl.a and libHexapodConfig.a).

The use of one or another command syntax is set in the property GCSVersion of the HexapodConfig and Hexapod-

Motor, the default value is 1, corresponding to the version 1.0. The value 2 has to be set for using the GCS version

2.0.

The M-850 and M-840 hexapods, can have two piezos (treatead as additional axes, named H and M) additional to the 6

ones (X, Y, Z, U, V, Z). The Server also controls submodules only with the 2 piezos (axes X and Z). This has to be given

in a property of the motor class, since the commands are different. If the Hexapod controls the 2 piezos submodule,

the class HexapodConfig has not sense and it can not be used.

pleteMove from the Tango Devices in the array DyNbMotorName, setting the positions to the ones in the array

DyNbUnitsToMoveTo.

MoveSyn.Move the motors controlled by the Tango Devices MotorName1 and MotorName2, but changing the

SlewRates in such a way that both motors reach the set point at the same time. After the movement the SlewRates

go back the the original value.

StopAllMotors. Stop the movement of all motors controlled by this Server. Call the Stop function from the

6.39.5 check-motor-registers(), cmr()

At various places the OmsVme58 Tango server ensures the validity of the step position by comparing the internal

(software) values and the controller registers. If the internal and controller registers deviate, the following sequence of

conditions are tested:

• If the controller is 0 and within the step limits, the controller is loaded with the internal value. This is the

power-up scenario.

• If the controller is non-zero but deviates from the internal value by shift-right-by-3bits, the internal value is

loaded to the controller. This is a workaround for the hardware bug that the position registers are changed by the

first homing after re-powering VME.

• If the controller is non-zero and inside limits, the internal value is overwritten by the controller value. We trust

the controllers because they should keep track of the motor position.

• If the internal values is non-zero and inside limits, the internal values are loaded into the controller.

• Otherwise the disagreement is not resolved.

Cmr() sends some log messages to stderr, which can be inspected by Astor.

pogo_html_docu/PiezoPiGpibCtrl/index.html See pogo generated info for more details.

Class creating a connection to the Piezos from Physical Instruments (PI) via gpib and implementing the commands for

writing and reading. The standard GpibDeviceServer can not be used, because the read operation has to be performed

several times for getting the complete answer from the device.

6.55.1 Properties

GPIBWrite. For writing to GPIB without reading.

GPIBWriteRead. Performs several readings (until the answer is completed) after writing, the answer is returned

with Line Feedback and black spaces, in the same way as the device answers. If the length of the gpib answer is

null, the command throws an exception. This happens for example if the GpibDeviceTimeout is 11 (1 s, smaller

than the 3 s of the tango timeout) and a wrong command is sent. If the GpibDeviceTimeout is 12 (3 s) a Tango

timeout is produced.

State. Returns the device state.

6.62 SMCHydra

Tango Server for controlling the two motors connected to the axis 1 and 2 of a SMC Hydra Controller (from miCos

GmbH). The Server uses two classes: SMCHydraCtrl (Socket interface or serial) and SMCHydraMotor (for controlling

every single axis). It is also valid for controlling the axis of the SMC Pegasus Controller (the property FlagPegasus of

the SMCHydraMotor class has to be set to 1 in this case).

The code of the SMCHydraMotor class includes the SMCHydraCtrl class. This class is used to generate the corre-

sponding library (libSMCHydraCtrl.a).

Create one tango process for each controller (and the corresponding two motors), in other case errors can be produced:

when a motor in one controller is moved the other controller returns error in the state.

6.64 Tango Motor

This is a template for a generic Tango motor server. It implements the minimal interface for every ’movable’. Every

motor that complies to this interface can be operated from Online using such an entry in /online dir/online.xml:

<device>

<name>mnchrmtr</name>

<type>type_tango</type>

<module>motor_tango</module>

<device>pXX/blenergy/exp.01</device>

<control>tango</control>

<hostname>haso107XX:10000</hostname>

</device>

As in this example, a Tango motor is well suited to provide a handle to monochromators. Features that do not fit into

the minimal interface can be handled by a beamline-specific-code widget (BLSC) which refers to other attributes or

commands directly. An example can be found in the TkI manual in the BLSC chapter: Lom.

The attributes positionSim and resultSim make it applicable for compound devices also. More details can be found

6.70 VmExecutor

This is an implementation of the virtual motor concept using the Tango motor interface. The VmExecutor class executes

code that is provided by the user. The user code defines the class VM which consists fo certain function members that

need to be supplied. In addition to the attributes listed below extra attributes can be added to the class, these attributes

have to be defined in the property DynamicAttributes of the device (see below the description of this property for

details) and an additional method for writting/reading these attributes have to be defined in the VM class. See the

examples below.

Motors of this kind are introduced to Online by such an entry in /online dir/online.xml:

<device>

<name>vm_slit</name>

<type>type_tango</type>

<module>motor_tango</module>

<device>p111/vmexecutor/exp.01</device>

<control>tango</control>

<hostname>haspp111:10000</hostname>

</device>

6.70.1 Properties

DynamicAttributes List of the attributes to be added dynamically to the class. The entry for each attribute has

to be of the type: name,type,access,dimension with long, double and string as possible type values, r (only read)

and rw (read and write) as access values, and dimension the maximum dat length (only need in case of spectrum

attributes). If type and access are not specified, or they are but the value is not a possible one, the attribute will

be created as long with write and read access. For example:

OffsetX,double,rw

Phi,double,r

DataSpectrum,double,r,1024

SimulationMode,int,rw

VmCode The path to the file that contains the motor code. Examples can be found below.

6.70.7 Additional methods for dynamic attributes

The following methods have to be defined if extra attributes are added by the property DynamicAttributes:

def read_DynamicAttr(self, name):

if name == "attr1":

return 1

elif name == "attr2":

return 2

def write_DynamicAttr(self, name, value):

if name == "attr1":

print "Value for attr1 " + str(value)

The example asumes two dynamic attributes with the names attr1 and attr2. attr2 read-only attribute. The property

DynamicAttributes of the device could look like (jive):

Property name | Value

6.70.9 Other examples for VmExecutors

Other examples for VmExecutors can be found in the example chapter of the manual.

6.71 ZMX

Tango Server for the Stepper Motor Power Stage model ZMX from Phytron. The Server uses the classes ZMX and

Socket. Host name and port number of the Power Stage system are given as properties (HostName and Port) of the

Socket tango device that is started in the same process as the zmx devices. An optimal value for the Socket Timeout

property is 300. The ZMX devices make the connection with this socket device by a property SocketDevice.

Note: Changes of the ZMX attributes are made persistent by executing the command WriteEPROM. The command

is automatically executed, if FlagSaveAutomatically is set to true.

The Socket class is based on the one from Soleil (in Tango-ds cvs) but with a modification for avoiding a Segmentation

Fault in the ZMX device when the socket is not responding. The library libtgclasses in Tango-ds svn contains the

modified Socket class.

pogo_html_docu/ZMX/index.html See pogo generated info for more details.

6.71.1 Properties

pogo_html_docu/ZMX/Properties.html See pogo generated info for more details.

Channel. Channel number of the power stage (from 0 to 15).

SimulationMode. 0 -¿ real mode, 1 -¿ simulation.

SocketDevice. Name of the socket tango device running in the same process as the ZMX devices.

6.71.2 States

pogo_html_docu/ZMX/States.html See pogo generated info for more details.

ALARM. Not used.

FAULT. Set when the socket is not responding.

ON.

6.71.3 Commands

pogo_html_docu/ZMX/Commands.html See pogo generated info for more details.

LoadFromOutputFile. Read read write attribute values from the binary file given as input argument und write

the read values to hardware.

ReadFileContent. Read read write attribute values from the binary file given as input argument und return the

read values as command output. It can be used for checking the contents of a file before writing the values to the

hardware.

ReadFilesInOutputPath. Return all the files in the directory in the PathOuputFiles attribute.

Reset. Power stage reset.

ResetErrorZMXConnection. Reset to 0 the flag indicating an error in ZMX connection (attribute FlagEr-

rorZMXConnection) and empty the string with the list of errors (attribute ErrorZMXConnection).

RevMinus. Motor test: one motor rotation with preset run current (negative direction). Starts a thread if socket

is responding with timeout, the thread runs until the socket responds. This command takes more than 3 sec, so it

is not possible to avoid the time out (by setting the Timeout of the socket)without having a time out of the Tango

command.

RevPlus. Motor test: one motor rotation with preset run current (positive direction). Starts a thread if socket is

responding with timeout, the thread runs until the socket responds. This command takes more than 3 sec, so it is

not possible to avoid the time out (by setting the Timeout of the socket) without having a time out of the Tango

command.

SaveToOutputFile. Save current read write attribute values to binary file (file name given as input argument).

State. Returns the device state. Default Tango Command.

Status. It gets the device status. Default Tango Command.

WriteEPROM. Write parameters in the EPROM. Starts a thread if socket is responding with timeout, the thread

runs until the socket responds. With 300 ms as Timeout for the socket, it will be a time out when trying to

perform this command. 600 ms are enough for avoiding the timeout.

7.6 VcExecutor

This is an implementation of the virtual counter concept. The VcExecutor class executes code that is provided by the

user. The user code defines the class VC which consists fo certain function members that need to be supplied. See the

examples below.

Note: VcExector have to return an integer value. The example 7.6.7 shows how to deal with floating point numbers.

In addition to the attributes listed below extra attributes can be added to the class, these attributes have to be defined in

the property DynamicAttributes of the device (see below the description of this property for details) and an additional

method for writting/reading these attributes have to be defined in the VM class. See the examples below.

7.6.1 Entry in online.xml

Counters of this kind are introduced to Online by such an entry in /online dir/online.xml:

<device>

<name>exp_doris</name>

<tags>expert,user</tags>

<type>counter</type>

<module>counter_tango</module>

<device>p09/vcexecutor/doris.01</device>

<control>tango</control>

<device>p09/vcexecutor/petra.01</device>

<control>tango</control>

<hostname>haso107klx:10000</hostname>

</device>

7.6.2 Properties

pogo_html_docu/VcExecutor/Properties.html See pogo generated info for more details.

Device Name of a tango device to be passed to the VcCode in the constructor. If not defined nothing will be

passed.

Door Name of a Door device to be passed to the VcCode in the constructor (in case connection with Sardana is

needed). If not defined nothing will be passed.

DynamicAttributes List of the attributes to be added dynamically to the class. The entry for each attribute has

to be of the type: name,type,access,dimension1,dimension2 (for images) with long, double and string as possible

type values, r (only read) and rw (read and write) as access values,dimension1 the maximum data length en case

of spectra and the horizontal dimension in case of images (not needed for scalars), and dimension2 the vertical

dimension in case of images (not needed for scalars or spectra). If type and access are not specified, or they are

but the value is not a possible one, the attribute will be created as long with write and read access. For example:

OffsetX,double,rw

Phi,double,r

DataSpectrum,double,r,1024

DataImage, double,r,1024,2056

SimulationMode,int,rw

VcCode The path to the file that contains the virtual counter code. Examples can be found below.

Counts The counter reading, RW.

7.6.6 A trivial example

In the following example, the virtual counter is directly coupled to another counter.

#!/bin/env python

import PyTango

class VC:

def __init__(self):

print " VC.init"

self.proxies = []

self.proxies.append( PyTango.DeviceProxy( "p09/counter/exp.01"))

#

# dev_state

#

def dev_state( self):

argout = self.proxies[0].State()

return argout

#

# Counts

#

def read_Counts( self):

print "vc1:: read-counts "

return self.proxies[0].Counts

def write_Counts( self, argin):

print "vc1:: write-counts "

self.proxies[0].Counts = argin

return 1

#

# reset

#

def Reset(self):

print "vc1:: resetting ", self.proxies[0].name()

# dev.proxies[0].inout( "Reset")

self.proxies[0].Reset()

print "vc1:: reset DONE"

return True

7.6.7 The Petra Current

In the following example, the virtual counter returns the Petra current. Since the return value of a counter has to be an

integer value, the current reading is multiplied by 1000 and casted to long.

#!/bin/env python

import PyTango

import HasyUtils

class VC:

def __init__(self):

try:

# self.proxy = PyTango.DeviceProxy( ’tango_host:10000/petra/globals/keyword’)

self.proxy = PyTango.DeviceProxy( ’petra/globals/keyword’)

except Exception, e:

print "VC.petra3current: failed to create proxy"

print repr( e)

return

self.lastReading = 0.

#

def dev_state( self):

return PyTango.DevState.ON

#

def read_Counts( self):

try:

argout = self.proxy.BeamCurrent

self.lastReading = argout

except Exception, e:

argout = self.lastReading

return argout

#

def write_Counts( self, argin):

pass

#

def Reset(self):

return 1

7.6.8 The Signal Generator

The following VcExecutor generates a signal. It is supposed to be used with ascan-like scans of 50 points.

#!/bin/env python

#

# this Vc counter produces a Gauss peak

# - it is supposed to be used with ascans of 50 points

# - the maximum is in the middle

#

import HasyUtils

import random, math

NP = 50.

class VC:

def __init__(self):

print " VC.init"

self.xMin = 0.

self.xMax = 10.

self.width = 1.

self.height = 800.

self.x = 0.1

self.delta = self.xMax/NP/4.

self.x0 = 5.

self.offset = 0.

self.scanID = -1

self.count = 0

#

# dev_state

#

def dev_state( self):

argout = self.proxies[0].State()

return argout

#

# Counts

#

def read_Counts( self):

self.count += 1

#

# reset things, if the ScanID changes, new scan

#

try:

if int( HasyUtils.getEnv( ’ScanID’)) != self.scanID:

self.scanID = int( HasyUtils.getEnv( ’ScanID’))

self.x = 0

except:

pass

temp = (self.x - self.x0)/self.width;

temp = self.height*math.exp( -temp*temp/self.width)

self.x = self.x + self.delta

if self.x > self.xMax:

self.x = 0

return temp

def write_Counts( self, argin):

return 1

#

# Offset

#

def read_Offset( self):

return self.offset

def write_Offset( self, argin):

self.offset = argin

return 1

#

# reset

#

def Reset(self):

return True

7.6.9 The VFCADC Attribute Counts

The following Vc module returns the Counts attribute of a VFCADC.

#!/bin/env python

import PyTango

class VC:

def __init__(self):

print " VC.init"

self.proxies = []

self.proxies.append( PyTango.DeviceProxy( "p09/vfc/exp.01"))

#

# dev_state

#

def dev_state( self):

argout = self.proxies[0].State()

return argout

#

# Counts

#

def read_Counts( self):

print "vc_attribute:: read-counts "

return self.proxies[0].Counts

def write_Counts( self, argin):

return 1

#

# reset

#

def Reset(self):

return True

If we wanted to use this device in Sardana, the file /online dir/onlineSardana.xml had to be edited to include the lines

which are listed below. We assume that the VcExecutor device name is p09/vcexecutor/vfc_counts.01.

After a Sardana shutdown and Sardana startup the device exp vfc01 is avalable in Spock.

The PosAndAvgCurr attribute is a list of 3 elements. The following Vc extract the average current element.

#!/bin/env python

import PyTango

class VC:

def __init__(self):

self.proxy = PyTango.DeviceProxy( "p09/i404/exp.01")

#

# dev_state

#

def dev_state( self):

return self.proxy.state()

#

# Counts

#

def read_Counts( self):

lst = self.proxy.PosAndAvgCurr

if len( lst) != 3:

return None

return lst[2]

def write_Counts( self, argin):

return 1

def Reset(self):

return True

if __name__ == "__main__":

vc = VC()

print "the average current", vc.read_Counts()

7.6.11 Additional methods for dynamic attributes

The following methods have to be defined if extra attributes are added by the property DynamicAttributes:

def read_DynamicAttr(self, name):

if name == "attr1":

return 1

elif name == "attr2":

return 2

def write_DynamicAttr(self, name, value):

if name == "attr1":

print "Value for attr1 " + str(value)

The example asumes two dynamic attributes with the names attr1 and attr2. attr2 read-only attribute. The property

DynamicAttributes of the device could look like (jive):

Property name | Value

--------------------------------

Dynamic Attribute | attr1,int,rw

| attr2,int,r

13.6 HViseg

Tango Server for controlling the HV Power Supply EHS 80 vvx from Iseg. The HV modules are inserted in a Mpod

Mini crate with MpodC controller from the firma Wiener. The connection is done via Ethernet using the Simple

Network Management Protocol (snmp). This protocol uses a Management Information Base (MIB) file, searched in the

directory /usr/share/snmp/mibs, for matching variables and adresses. The Server uses two classes: HVisegMPODCtrl,

interface to hardware and HVisegEHS80, controlling each of the channels.

The code of the HVisegEHS80 class includes the HVisegMPODCtrl. This class is used to generate the corresponding

librarie (libHVisegMPODCtrl.a).

13.6.1 HVisegMPODCtrl

pogo_html_docu/HVisegMPODCtrl/index.html See pogo generated info for more details.

Class connecting to the hardware using the snmp protocol.

Properties

pogo_html_docu/HVisegMPODCtrl/Properties.html See pogo generated info for more details.

IpAddr. IP address.

MIBFile. Name of the MIB module matching the hardware addresses (only write the name of the module,

without the termination .txt of the file).

SimulationMode. 0 real mode, 1 simulation mode.

States

pogo_html_docu/HVisegMPODCtrl/States.html See pogo generated info for more details.

FAULT. Problems in the communication.

ON. Communication without problems.

Commands

pogo_html_docu/HVisegMPODCtrl/Commands.html See pogo generated info for more details.

GetValue. Read a value.

State. Returns the device state.

Status. It gets the device status.

SetValue. Write a value.

Attributes

pogo_html_docu/HVisegMPODCtrl/Attributes.html See pogo generated info for more details.

13.6.2 HVisegEHS80

pogo_html_docu/HVisegEHS80/index.html See pogo generated info for more details.

Class for controlling the monochromator. A thread is started any time a command is perfomed, and it ends when the

actions and movements are finished. This avoids timeout problems.

Properties

pogo_html_docu/HVisegEHS80/Properties.html See pogo generated info for more details.

ChannelNb. Number of the HV channel (from 1 to 8).

CrateSlot. Number of the slot in the crate (from 1 to 4).

HVisegMPODCtrlDevice. Name of the HVisegMPODCtrl tango device making the connection to the hardware.

SimulationMode. 0 real mode, 1 simulation mode.

States

pogo_html_docu/HVisegEHS80/States.html See pogo generated info for more details.

FAULT. Not used.

ON. Set if the connection to the HVisegMPODCtrl is done properly.

Commands

pogo_html_docu/HVisegEHS80/Commands.html See pogo generated info for more details.

SafetyLoopReset. Reset safety loop error in all channels.

Attributes

pogo_html_docu/HVisegEHS80/Attributes.html See pogo generated info for more details.

ChannelNumber. Number of the channel (from 1 to 8). Read from the ChannelNb property at init. Only read.

ChannelStatus. Off (0), On (1), resetEmergencyOff (2), setEmergencyOff (3), clearEvents (10). Read: An

enumerated value which shows the current state of the output channel. Write: Change the state of the channel.

If the channel is On, and the write value is Off, then the channel will switch Off. If the channel is Off, and the

write value is On, and if no other signals (mainInhibit, outputInhibit, outputEmergencyOff or outputFailureMax-

Current) are active, then the channel will switch on. If the write value is resetEmergencyOff, then the channel

will leave the state EmergencyOff. A write of clearEvents is necessary before the voltage can ramp up again. If

the write value is setEmergencyOff, then the channel will have the state EmergencyOff, which means that the

High Voltage will switch off without a ramp and reset of the outputVoltage to null volts. If the write value is

clearEvents, then all failure messages of the outputStatus will be reset (all channel events, all module events and

the state emergencyOff).

ChannelStatusStr. String with the channel status. Only read.

CrateSlot. Slot of the channel (from 1 to 4). Read from the CrateSlot property at init. Only read.

Example how to operate the Multi Channel Analyzer triggered externally by the Zebra box

The cable connected to the output of the Zebra box with the trigger pulses has to be plugin in the first channel of the

MCS.

A full example for running the MCS with Zebra triggers via a spock macro is shown in the sardana documentation.

Here a sequence of the actions to be performed is shown.

# Set the zebra device

zebra_device.NbTriggers = nb_triggers

zebra_device.TriggerInterval = trigger_interval

# Set MCS

mcs_device.NbAcquisitions = 0 # Continuous mode

mcs_device.NbChannels = nb_mcs_channels

mcs_device.Preset = 1 # every trigger is used

nb_mcs_taken_triggers = nb_triggers

# Clear and setup mcs

mcs_device.ClearSetupMCS()

# Start zebra triggering

zebra_device.Arm = 1

# Check when the triggering is done

while zebra_device.State() == PyTango.DevState.MOVING:

time.sleep(1)

# Read MCS

mcs_device.ReadMCS()

# MCS Data

mcs_data = mcs_device.CountsArray

# Zebra encoder Data

zebra_data = zebra_device.EncoderSpectrum

18.1.6 How to ...

Mandatory setup

The directories where the default trimbits and calibration files can be found must be set-up:

mythen_client.py trimdir /scratch/trimbits

mythen_client.py caldir /scratch/calibration

Acquisition setup

You will need to setup first the output file directory, name and index:

mythen_client.py outdir /scratch

mythen_client.py fname run

mythen_client.py index 0

in this way the output files will be /scratch/run i.dat, where i starts from 0 and is automatically incremented.

You will then need to setup detector thresholds and settings, exposure time, the number of real time frames and how

many real time frames should be acquired:

mythen_client.py settings standard

mythen_client.py threshold 6000

mythen_client.py exptime 1

mythen_client.py frames 10

Acquisition

The acquisition can be started with

mythen_client.py start

You can check that the status of the detector with

mythen_client.py status

“running” means that it is taking data, “idle” that the acquisition is finished.

The data will be automatically downloaded to the chosen path. Should this not be done for whatever reason, you can

use

mythen_client.py frame

to download a single frame, or

mythen_client.py data

to download all the available data.

Data processing

Flat field and rate corrections can be applied simply by running

mythen_client.py flatfield myflatfield.raw

mythen_client.py ratecorr -1 # default values

Merging of frames to a single image

If you want the acquired frames to be merged in a single image, you will have to set the following attributes:

EnableMerge: true. (Default value: false.)

MergeDir (the directory where raw files, logs and so on will be moved. Raw files will be moved here also when

not merged.)

MinFrames (frames will be merged only if their number is larger than this MinFrames, otherwise they will be

just moved to MergeDir. Default value is 0, which means that frames will be always merged.)

If you don’t want the frames to be moved to MergeDir, you will have to set EnableMerge to false (i.e. the default

value).

rdesktop -a 16 -g 90% haso052lcx

with the user lcxuser.

• Start the windows program talking to the camera:

C:\Program Files\PI Acton\WinView

• Start the perl server (in a terminal with the perl prompt):

perl> perl lcxserver.pl

• Start the Tango Server in the Linux computer where it has been installed.

19.16.7 How to ...

... take images

Execute the command StartAcquisition. If you want to write the data into a file set the attribute FileSaving to 1,

during or before starting the acquisition (set back to 0 for stopping writting). The file will be written in binary, png

or tif format depeding on what is written in the attribute FilePostfix (.bin, .png or .tif). The files will be written in

the directory FileDir, with a name given fbu FilePrefix followed by a number that is initialized to the value given in

FileStartNum.

The command StartAcquisition can not be performed if the Live Viewer is taking images.

... stop taking images

Execute the command StopAcquisition.

... write/read a camera parameter

The camera parameters are represented by Tango attributes. For reading or writting any value, the connection to the

camera has to be open. If the server is in RUNNING state (camera is taking images) it would be enough to read or

write the corresponding attribute. However many of the parameters are not allowed to be accessed during the image

taking. If the server is in ON state:

Execute InitCamera, for openning the connection.

Read/Write the corresponding tango attribute.

Execute CleanupCamera, for closing the connection to the camera.

... see the image with Taurus Image GUI

Type in an xterm:

taurusimage tango/attribute/image/name

with name:

Bild uchar for 8 bits images.

Bild ushort for 16 bits images.

Bild log for image in log scale.

Bild sqrt for image in sqrt values.

Detectors in Lima

21.1 Introduction

Lima is a Library for IMage Acquisition developed at ESRF. The Lima framework allows the control from different

detectors as well as some features like calculations using common Tango devices. These Tango devices are, among

other possible, clients of the Lima library. They can be written in c++ or python (in this case a Lima sip module is

used).

The use of the Lima framework for a given detector requires the implementation of its specific plugin into the library

and of a specific Tango class for its configuration. A Lima Tango proccess for a detector consists of the common

devices as well as the specific detector device.

In

http://lima.blissgarden.org/applications/tango/doc/index.html

21.9.1 Image Acquistion

• Attributes configuration

Please configure the following attributes before starting image acquisitionAttribute Description

acq mode Single:default mode one frame per image

Concatenation : frames are concatenated in image

Accumulation : powerful mode to avoid saturation of the pixel, the exposure is shared by multiple

frames

acq nb frames Number of frames to be acquired, Default is 1 frame

acq trigger mode Internal trigger : the software trigger,start the acquisition immediately after an acqStart() call, all the

acq nb frames are acquired in an sequence

External trigger : wait for an external trigger signal to start the an acquisition for the acq nb frames

number of frames

External trigger multi : as the previous mode except that each frames need a new trigger input (e.g.

for 4 frames 4 pulses are waiting for)

Internal trigger multi : as for internal trigger except that for each frame the acqStart() has to called

once

External gate : wait for a gate signal for each frame,the gate period is the exposure time

External start stop

acq expo time The exposure time of the image, Default is 1 second

saving mode Manual : This is not supported in current version

Auto Frame : rames are automatically saved according the saving parameters

Auto header : Frames are only saved when the setImageHeader() is called in order to set header

information with image data

saving directory The directory where to save the image files

saving format Raw : save in binary format

Edf : save in ESRF data format

saving prefix The image file prefix

saving suffix The image file suffix. Please configure the saving format attribute, then this attribute will be automat-

ically adjusted

saving overwrite policy In case of existing files an overwite policy is mandatory:

Abort : if the file exists, the saving is aborted

Overwrite : if the file exists, it is overwritten

Append : if the file exists, it is appended to the file

22.3 Gateways between Tango and Tine

It is necessary from an experiment running the Tango control system to communicate with the Tine control system of

the accelerator.

The communication must be possible in two ways.

22.3.1 Tine to Tango

Accelerator parameters must be available for the experiment. This is possible with the TTTGW class (Tine To Tango

GateWay) which maps Tango device names to Tine entities. pogo_html_docu/TTTGW/index.html

As an example, here is a screen shot of the Tine globals which are importet by the TTTGW:

22.3.2 Tango to Tine

Experiment data must be available in the Tine control system for archiving. The archiving system used is the accel-

erator archive driven by Tine. To make Tango data available in Tine, the Tango the Tine gateway class can be used.

pogo_html_docu/TangoToTine/index.html

Figure 22.1: TTTGW (Tine to Tango)

Example

The following example shows how Tango attributes of a I404 BPM server are exported to the Tine world.

DeviceList The list of the Tango devices to be exported. It is possible to use the wildcard character * in the

device name, e.g.: p08/i404/exp*.

TineContext PEX is the choice for all Petra-3 experiments. Context names should be invented with care.

TineEqmName Appears as Device Server name in the Tine world.

The following figure shows the Tine Instant Client application which monitors the Read position x attribute of the

BPM server p08/i404/exp.01.

22.3.3 TTTDynamicAttr

pogo_html_docu/TTTDynamicAttr/Description.html This class exports to Tine only one attribute from

one device, the name of the attribute and device are given in the class properties DeviceToExport and AttributeToEx-

port, but the attribute is exported to Tine with fixed Device Name (VariableAttribute) and Device Property (Value) Tine

names and always as string. In this way the attribute can be changed without having to inform Tine about the archiving

of a new attribute. Tine Device Context and Device Server names are specified like in the TangoToTine class, via

properties.

23.2.3 Run a Scan in the discriminator threshold

The command StartScan is implemented for making automatically scans of the number of counts as a function of the

discriminator threshold. For these scans de device run with SCA as count source. The scans can be run in INT or WIN

mode, selected by the attribute ScanMode. In both cases the scan is done as a function of the discriminator level, but

in WIN mode a window is used with a width given by the attribute ScanWin.

For perfoming it with the Tango Device you have to follow these steps:

• Set the attributes: ScanMode, ScanLowLimit, ScanHighLimit, ScanStepSize and ScanIntegratingTime (also

ScanWin if ScanMode is set to WIN).

• Execute the command StartScan

When the command StartScan is executed the device will go to state MOVING, this state remains until the scan is fin-

ished, returning to ON state. At this point the spectrum obtained in the scan can be seen in the attribute ScanSpectrum.

The value of the threshold (and the window in case of WIN mode) before starting the scan will be restored once it is

finished.

23.11.5 Client Example

Simply read and write attributes:

from PyTango import *import sys

import time

try :

t1 = DeviceProxy( "haso111n:10000/test/clipboard/1")

line1 = t1.read_attribute("Line1")

print "Line1: ", line1.value

line2 = t1.Line2

print "Line2: ", line2

t1.write_attribute("Line3","mytest")

except :

print "Failed with exception !"

print sys.exc_info()[0]

Example of how to subscribe to events for automatically detecting the changes in attributes. The attribute the subscrip-

tion is made to, has to have defined change events and polling.

The function pus event in the callback class defines what will be done when it ocurrs a change in the subscribed

attribute.

from PyTango import *import sys

import time

# The subscribe attributes have to have events and polling

class PyCallback:

def push_event(self,event):

if not event.err:

print event.attr_name, event.attr_value.value

else:

print event.errors

try :

t1 = DeviceProxy( "haso111n:10000/test/clipboard/1")

cb = PyCallback();

# We can only subscribe once

# t1.subscribe_event("UpdateId2", EventType.CHANGE_EVENT, cb, [])

att = AttributeProxy(’test/clipboard/1/UpdateId2’)

ev = att.subscribe_event(EventType.CHANGE_EVENT, cb, [])

while(1):

time.sleep(1)

except DevFailed, df:

Except.print_exception(df)

23.11.6 Synchronization between Clients

If there are clients continuously writing and reading the Line attributes, based on the UpdateId for testing if the attribute

has been changed, it can happen that between the writing in the Line attribute from one of the clients and its readout of

the UpdateId one other client is also writing in the attribute Line, and this can produce synchronization problems. For

avoiding this, it is recommendable the use of the SetLine command, in which both actions are done simultaneously.

23.12 CollisionsSensor

pogo_html_docu/CollisionsSensor/index.html See pogo generated info for more details.

Tango Server for checking if a movement is allowed before performing it. If in the device server of a motor the property

FlagUseCollisionsSensor is set to 1, when a movement is set the motor will connect to the CollisionsSensor device

given in his property CollisionsSensorDS (in case this connection is still not done) and will send to it the command

CheckCollision with three arguments: name of the motor device, beamline ( given in the property CollisionsSensorBL)

and new position to be set. Only if the return of this function is 0 (movement allowed by the restrictions set in

the CollisionsSensor for the movement of this motor) the movement will be performed. The checks done in the

CheckCollision function are hardcoded for any motor and for any beamline. Due to the serialization of the Tango

requests, the CheckCollision command can not read data from the motor device calling it. In case data from this motor

is needed for checking the move condition, these data have to be send by the motor to attributes of the CollisionsSensor

device implemented only for this purpose. The OmsVme58 motor class has a property that activates the send of data

to the CollisionsSensor by writing in these attributes.

23.12.3 Commands

pogo_html_docu/CollisionsSensor/Commands.html See pogo generated info for more details.

CheckCollision. Returns 0 if the movement is allowed. Requires as argument the beamline number (as string),

new motor position and motor device name.

Init. Default Tango command. Initializes the device.

23.12.4 Attributes

pogo_html_docu/CollisionsSensor/Attributes.html See pogo generated info for more details.

23.12.5 Set a motor device for using it

The motor class has to be adapted if this server wants to be used for checking possible collisions before performing a

movement.

Three new properties have to be implemented:

FlagUseCollisionsSensor. Set to 1 if a CollisionsSensor device wants to be used. Set the default to 0, so the

server will run without problems if it is not se at all.

CollisionsSensorDS. Name of the CollisionsSensor device to be connected. This Server has to be running when

a movement wants to be performed, but it is not necessary that it runs at the initialization.

CollisionsSensorBL. Beamline number as string. It is necessary since the check of the movement depends on

the motor and the beamline.

FlagSendDataToCollisionsSensor. If set to 1, the motor will write in the attributes Value1 and Value2 of the

CollisionsSensor device the UnitLimitMax and UnitLimitMin values. This is need for motors which need these

values for the move condition.

The call to the function CheckCollisions with the right arguments (beamline number, motor position to be set and motor

device name) has to be called before any movement is sent to the hardware. Only if the answer of this function is 0 the

movement will be performed. Optionally the ALARM state can be used for informing abour errors in the connection

with the CollisionsSensor device.

As an example of the implementation:

In the header file:

DeviceProxy *collisions_sensor_device;

DevVarDoubleStringArray *collisions_sensor_data;

In the init device function:

if(flagUseCollisionsSensor){

collisions_sensor_data = new DevVarDoubleStringArray();

collisions_sensor_data->dvalue.length(1);

collisions_sensor_data->svalue.length(2);

}

In the function called when a movement wants to be performed:

DeviceData dout;

DeviceData din;

long iout;

if(flagUseCollisionsSensor){

if(collisions_sensor_device == 0){

try{

collisions_sensor_device = new Tango::DeviceProxy(collisionsSensorDS);

} catch(Tango::DevFailed &e){

set_state(Tango::ALARM);

set_status("Not connection to CollisionsSensor device. Check CollisionsSensorDS property

argout = 0;

goto finish;

}

}

if(flagSendDataToCollisionsSensor){

DeviceAttribute *da_write1 = new DeviceAttribute( "Value1", (Tango::DevDouble)attr_UnitLimitMax_write

collisions_sensor_device->write_attribute(*da_write1);

DeviceAttribute *da_write2 = new DeviceAttribute( "Value2", (Tango::DevDouble)attr_UnitLimitMin_write

collisions_sensor_device->write_attribute(*da_write2);

}

collisions_sensor_data->svalue[0] = collisionsSensorBL.c_str(); // beamline

collisions_sensor_data->dvalue[0] = (double) argin; // newposition

collisions_sensor_data->svalue[1] = this->device_name.c_str();

din << collisions_sensor_data;

try{

dout = collisions_sensor_device->command_inout("CheckCollision",din);

} catch(Tango::DevFailed &e){

set_state(Tango::ALARM);

set_status("CheckCollision command failed. Not movement.");

argout = 0;

goto finish;

}

dout >> iout;

if(iout){

argout = 0;

goto finish;

}

if(get_state() == Tango::ALARM){

set_state(Tango::ON);

set_status("Device in ON state");

}

}

...

Continue with the movement.

...

23.12.6 Client Example

ing example is only useful for showing how the call to the CheckCollision function has to be done.

23.66.4 Attributes

pogo_html_docu/Petra3Undulator/Attributes.html See pogo generated info for more details.

Gap. Gap of the undulator. It is read/written directly from/to the TTTGW/PTTGW Server. Writing to this at-

tribute is equivalent to write in GapTarget and perform StartMove after that. The limits set in the Petra3Undulator

class are 220/9.5 mm. The protection to write it is done, in case is needed, in the TTTGW/PTTGW Server, not

in Tango, the State of this Server will be DISABLE in this case. It is an expert controlled attribute, only seen by

ATK in Expert View mode.

GapTarget. Position to be moved the gap to if the command StartMove is performed. It is read/written directly

from/to the attribute of the same name in the TTTGW/PTTGW Server.

Harmonic. Harmonic to be used in the calculation of the gap from the energy. If 0, it takes the minimum odd

harmonic possible for the given energy.

Position. Undulator energy computed using the gap and fitting parameters. By writting it moves the gap to the

value computed from the given value, take it as energy in eV. By reading it returns the energy value computed

from te current gap.

PositionSim. Computes the gap for the given energy and stores the value in the ResultSim attribute. It does not

make any movement.

ResultSim. Shows the position of the gap computed from the energy value written in the PositionSim attribute.

23.103 Zebra

Tango class for operating the Zebra box (digital signal level converter and position capture box). The connection to

the Zebra can be done directly to the computer using the USB connection or to a terminal server. In case the USB

connection is used, the property PortNb has to be set to -1 and the IPAdress has to be set to the name of the USB

device, for example /dev/ttyUSB1.

By setting the attribute Arm to 1, trigger pulses are generated in the TTL Output set in the Property TTLOutput. The

time between triggers and the pulse length are set in the TriggerInterval and TriggerPulseTime attributes, respectively.

The number of triggers to be generated is set in the attribute NbTriggers.

The gate for the triggers can be started based on time or in encoder position. The property GateTriggByPos allows

to select between this two operation modes. If set to 0, the trigger pulses start after setting Arm to 1. If set to 1, the

trigger pulses start after setting Arm to 1 when the position of the encoder connected to the first encoder signal reaches

the position set in the Attribute TriggerPosStart. This position is given in physical units, the conversion to encoder

units is done using the properties PosConversionFactor and PosOffset, that has to be set correctly. If the calibration

of the motor encoder and the of the Zebra are synchronized the PosOffset property has to be set to 0. The Attribute

TriggerPosWidth can be used for fixing a window for stopping the pulse trigger generation, if positive the direction for

stopping the trigger has to be the increasing one and if negative the decreasing one. If the number of triggers want to

be fixed, without taking into account the final encoder position, set the attribute TriggerPosWidth to an amount outside

the posible encoder range. In position trigger mode, the trigger pulses can be also stopped setting Arm to 0.

Up to four encoder signals can be connected to the Zebra box and readout internally for each generated trigger. The

property EncoderMask select which enconder signals want to be readout (ex. 1, for reading the signal connected to

channel 1; 3 for reading the signals connected to channels 1 and 2; 8 for reading signal connected to channel 4, etc.).

The values of the encoder signals for each trigger are exported in the spectrum attributes of the Tango class. If only one

encoder signal is readout the corresponding values are in the attribute EncoderSpectrum (independently of in which

channel this signal is connected), if two encoder signals are readout the values will go to the attributes EncoderSpectrum

and Encoder2Spectrum and so sucessively.

A cable from the TTL output selected has to be connected to the trigger input of the device that wants to be triggered

(for example, the XIA detector or the SIS3820 Multichannel Scaler). The property TTLOutputMask selects to which

TTL outputs is connected the trigger signal. The status of the Tango device is set to MOVING during the trigger

generation, and it goes back to ON when it is finished.

Matlab Binding

Matlab can be used as client for Tango. The matlabtango binding is installed in:

/usr/lib/matlabtango

If you don’t have it in your computer ask for the installation.

For using it:

• Start matlab as usual

• Set binding paths:

addpath(’/usr/lib/matlabtango/mex-file’)

addpath(’/usr/lib/matlabtango/m-files’)

addpath(’/usr/lib/matlabtango/m-files/utils’)

addpath(’/usr/lib/matlabtango/m-files/in-progess’)

addpath(’/usr/lib/matlabtango/m-files/object-layer’)

addpath(’/usr/lib/matlabtango/m-files/regression-test’)

• Check that the binding works, for example, with:

tango_ping(’sys/database/2’)

• Make the conexion to the Tango device you want to control, ex.:

devtest=tango.Device(’p10/timer/e2.01’)

• Start working with the created device. Typing:

devtest.

you will see the list of the API for the Tango Device in matlab. For example, for getting an attribute:

devtest.get_attribute(’SampleTime’)

or reading its current value:

devtest.get_attribute(’SampleTime’).read
