Controls

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

P65 runs on the PETRA III control system, Tango with Sardana as the scan / motion SCADA layer, the same floor as the other PETRA III beamlines. A motion axis is a Tango motor device (p65/motor/...), the energy a cdcmenergy device, the slit / table vmexecutor virtual axes; P65 shares the optics hutch with P64 (the hasnp64 host). The handles are read from P65's public OnlineXML registry and carried confirm (CTRL-1). The XAS acquisition (the CDCM energy scan read against the transmission / fluorescence signal) runs as a Sardana macro; that orchestration is the seam CORA's edge would conduct over its ControlPort (CTRL-2).
