Controls

The control plane the beamline runs on, and the seam CORA's edge conducts over. Control plane: EPICS / ophyd.

8-ID runs on the APS EPICS control stack. The device handles above are bound from the beamline's Bluesky instrument repo (BCDA-APS/8id-bits), carried confirm pending staff verification (CTRL-1). XPCS acquisition timing runs on a softGlueZynq FPGA fabric (8idMZ1:), modelled here as a single TimingController; the full softGlue signal graph is XPCS-3.
