Sweep

This widget has been created to minimize the dead time during MCA scans. The operation is basically that one motor, the inner loop motor, is continuously moved while MCAs and counters are active. In addition, two other motors can be handled by this widget to allow for 2D or 3D scans. The sweep mode can be disabled to execute MCA measurements while all motors stand still.

The devices that are active during the measurments can be specified by Options->'Select scan devices':
