Bluesky: The authors emphasize that there is no global exposure time for modern detectors, instead there are: acquire time, acquire period, num exposures, etc.
They are can be set interactively
det.exposure_time.set(3) det.acquire_period.set(3.5)
or from a plan
yield from bluesky.plan_stubs.mv( det.exposure_time, 3, det.acquire_period, 3.5)
Sardana: exposure time is specified on the command line as in 'ascan eh_mot65 0 1 10 0.1'. Complicated detectors are dealt with in hooks.
