TANGO devices and other tools developed by the community
The Centre for Advanced Laser Applications (CALA) near Munich, Germany, is a university laser laboratory operating a high-power laser system and several experiment endstations. Although the system is quite large, resources are limited compared to a user facility both in budget and workforce. Our Tango based control system used for machine control and data acquisition is therefore often driven...
A new generation of Qt graphical components, namely cumbia-qtcontrols-ng is under development at ELETTRA. A common engine allows each component to be rendered on traditional QWidgets and scalable QGraphicsItems alike. The latter technology makes it possible to integrate live controls with static SVG in order to realize any kind of synoptic with touch and scaling capabilities. A pluggable...
LaVue is Live Image Viewer GUI application for 2D detector images. It can display live images from various image sources, e.g. image Tango Attributes. The additional LavueController tango server allows to control LaVue GUI widgets remotely. Moreover, specialized image tools of LaVue application communicate via Tango interface with Sardana MacroServer, Tango motors or the LambdaOnlineAnalisys...
PLC controllers are crucial elements in communication between Tango devices and physical devices.
This area is also important in case of testing device servers' communication and logic.
In SOLARIS we found this fact as a good anchor point for develop a new way of testing our code.
We would like to present the mechanism of emulation PLC controller for creating virtual devices in a process...
SIP POWER is the name of the new power supply at NSRC SOLARIS, which is responsible for controlling the ion pump of the NEXTorr family. The presentation provides an overview of the Tango device server for the SIP POWER ion pump controller. It contains description of the ion pump controller, methods of connecting to the device, attributes reading and writing using logical shift and control of...
A very simple Tango device to store references data, typically Spectrum or Image attributes, to be retrieved later, without having to setup databases and without running special configurations.
For persistence data are saved in files.
