Controls

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

9-ID runs on the APS EPICS control stack. The device handles above are bound from the beamline's Bluesky instrument repo (BCDA-APS/9id_bits), carried confirm pending staff verification (CTRL-1). The instrument config also carries a large set of metadata PVs (experiment_name, file_path, qmap_file, workflow_name) and a DM_WorkflowConnector that trigger APS Data Management workflows; these are the experiment-record bookkeeping CORA's own system of record replaces, so they are a seam, not modelled as Assets (see model.md).
