BeamstopPosition ( self )

Return lowest practical dx at theta 0.

Will always return dxmin

Cryo (
        self,
        speed=120,
        goal=298,
        wait=1,
        shutdown=0,
        autocryomove=0,
        )

Set cryostat

Will always return 0 (failed)

GetAllowedCurrent ( self,  kv )

Get tube limits; simulates 2kW tube on 590 generator

GetAllowedVoltage ( self,  ma )

Get tube limits; simulates 2kW tube on 590 generator

GetCryo ( self )

Get cryostat status

Always says : none present.

GetGenerator ( self )

Get the last set generator values

GetOmegaRange ( self,  p )

Check what omega range can be reached from p.

parameters:

p

position for which omega ranges are requested.

return value: Since this is fake hardware, the result is None if the position can not be reached, or a 2-tuple (-180 deg,180 deg) if it can.

GetOmegaRanges ( self,  p )

Check what omega ranges can be reached from p.

parameters:

p

position for which omega ranges are requested.

return value: Since this is fake hardware, the result is None if the position (disregarding the given value of omega) can not be reached, or a 2-tuple (-180 deg,180 deg) if it can.

GetPosition ( self )

Get current position

MakeScan (
        self,
        frametime,
        numframes=1,
        phistep=0.0,
        dxstep=0.0,
        omegastep=0.0,
        kappastep=0.0,
        thetastep=0.0,
        repeats=1,
        shutter=1,
        outsink=None,
        )

Fake a scan; just pauses a few seconds.

MicroscopeImage ( self )

Get a corresponding microscope image

returns None for fake hardware

MinimizeDx ( self,  p )

Minimize dx in the given position.

Always returns p with the dx=dxmin

PosHardAllowed ( self,  p )

Verify whether p is allowed on the hardware.

Since this is fake hardware, it will just check whether angles are within normal ranges.

PosSoftAllowed ( self,  p )

Verify whether p satisfies direct limits on the angles.

This does not check for collisions.

RouteAllowed (
        self,
        p1,
        p2,
        )

Check whether a scan from p1 to p2 is allowed; fake=always true

SetFilename ( self,  filename )

Set file name for data collection

SetGenerator (
        self,
        ma=None,
        kv=None,
        outsink=None,
        )

Store generator settings for later reference

SetPosition (
        self,
        p,
        outsink=None,
        )

Set position.

__init__ (
        self,
        host=None,
        txtout=None,
        header=None,
        idletask=None,
        )

Constructor that is compatible with Kappa CCD driver constructor.

But in fact all arguments except the header argument are ignored. If a header is given, the hardware is constructed compatible to the original hardware used to measure the image. If no header is given, the exact hardware you end up with may be anything you can imagine....

__repr__ ( self )

One line description of the object
