malcolm.modules.demo.blocks.counter_block(mri)

Hardware Block simulating a single float64 counter

Parameters

mri (str) – Malcolm resource id of the Block

malcolm.modules.demo.blocks.detector_block(mri, config_dir, width=160, height=120, label='DemoDetector', readout_time='0.001')

This block uses a demo FileWriter and exposes a Detector like interface that can be controlled with a DetectorChildPart

Parameters

• mri (str) – MRI for created block

• config_dir (str) – Where to store saved configs

• width (int) – Width of the produced image

• height (int) – Height of the produced image

• label (str) – Beamline specific label for the detector

• readout_time (str) – Readout time of the detector

malcolm.modules.demo.blocks.hello_block(mri)

Hardware Block with a greet() Method

Parameters

mri (str) – Malcolm resource id of the Block

malcolm.modules.demo.blocks.motion_block(mri, config_dir)

Device Block that controls 2 child counters to simulate a motor controller with move methods

Parameters

• mri (str) – Malcolm resource id of the Block

• config_dir (str) – Where to store saved configs

malcolm.modules.demo.blocks.scan_1det_block(mri, config_dir)

Demo scan that drives an detector like block called DETECTOR and a demo motion controller called MOTION

Parameters

• mri (str) – MRI for created block

• config_dir (str) – Where to store saved configs

malcolm.modules.demo.blocks.scan_2det_block(mri, config_dir, initial_design='')

Demo scan that drives:

• MOT: A motion controller called $(hostname)-ML-MOT-01

• INTERFERENCE: A detector like block called $(hostname)-ML-DET-01

• RAMP: A detector like block called $(hostname)-ML-DET-02

Parameters

• mri (str) – MRI for created block

• config_dir (str) – Where to store saved configs

• initial_design (str) – Design to load at init
