Sample

The goniometer that holds and orients the crystal, the cryostream sample cooling, the on-axis backlight, and the beamstop. Supports serial and room-temperature MX.

Enclosure: manaca-experiment.

Note

MANACA holds a crystal on the goniometer and rotates it through an oscillation while the area detector reads frames. The goniometer reuses the graduated Goniometer family (the i03 MX precedent, exercised at FMX / AMX / MX3). The 48-pin sample changer is modelled as a deferred Procedure (sample exchange), not a device family, per the i03 / i24 / MX3 ROBOT-1 precedent.

Name Family PV Key specs Replaceable Status
Goniometer Goniometer the MANACA goniometer: omega rotation plus sample centring and alignment, supporting serial / room-temperature MX. Reuses the graduated Goniometer family; axis set and handles pending (GONIO-1) new confirm
SampleTemperature TemperatureController the cryostream sample cooling. Reuses the graduated TemperatureController family; handles pending (TEMP-1) new confirm
Backlight Backlight the on-axis sample backlight / frontlight for viewing and centring. Binds the catalog Backlight Family (graduated across the MX / imaging fleet, DET-1) new confirm
BeamStop BeamStop the beamstop blocking the direct beam at the sample. Reuses BeamStop; handles pending (SAMPLE-1) new confirm
