Controls¶
The control plane the beamline runs on, and the seam CORA's edge conducts over. Control plane: EPICS / dodal.
The trajectory motion controller and the timing boxes that drive the EDE fly-scan. The turbo-slit xfine axis is swept by a PMAC trajectory program; the PandA boxes provide hardware triggering and position capture.
