The following VM has been coded for haspp02ch1a. This way, cx of a slit can be used as the outer loop motor of 2D scans.
Before the virtual motor can be used, the following
command has to be entered: ONLINE>
def vm1.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w # # file name: /online_dir/vm1.pl # # This script is a template for a virtual motor. # my ($method, $value_new) = @ARGV; my $cx = Motor->locate( name => "slit( slt3, cx)"); my $status = 1; if( $method eq "set_position") { $status = $cx->set( position => $value_new); } elsif( $method eq "get_position") { $SYM{RETURN_VALUE} = $cx->get( "position") } elsif( $method eq "get_limit_min") { $SYM{RETURN_VALUE} = $cx->get( "unit_limit_min") } elsif( $method eq "get_limit_max") { $SYM{RETURN_VALUE} = $cx->get( "unit_limit_max") } elsif( $method eq "exec_stop") { Util::log( "vm1: method exec-stop"); } else { Spectra::error( "vm1: failed to identify $method"); $status = 0; goto finish; } finish: $status;
