Controls

The control plane the beamline runs on, and the seam CORA's edge conducts over. Control plane: BLISS / Beacon / Tango / IcePAP.

ID32 runs on the ESRF BLISS / Beacon control stack over Tango and IcePAP, the fleet's first non-EPICS, non-Sardana controls house-style. The device handles above are bound from the public BLISS Beacon device database (gitlab.esrf.fr/id32/beamline_configuration), carried confirm pending staff verification (CTRL-1); they are Tango device URLs, IcePAP host+address, and BLISS axis names, modelled as opaque edge handles over the ControlPort the way the MX3 heterogeneous-control precedent does. The RIXS / XES / XMCD acquisition (the energy + polarization moves, the spectrometer-arm Rowland trajectories, the field sweeps, the diffractometer scans) runs through BLISS sequences; that orchestration is the seam CORA's edge replaces, conducting over Tango / IcePAP rather than replacing BLISS. The Lima detector file-writing to the ESRF data store is plumbing CORA observes, not data it owns (see model.md).
