TPS 07A

micro-focus protein crystallography (rotation MX) on an Arinax MD3 + DECTRIS EIGER2 X 16M with an ISARA robot; reuses the i03 / MX3 Goniometer and MX Methods, novelty is the Site and its Blu-Ice/DCSS-over-EPICS orchestration seam (the 2-BM pattern, confirmed live over MXCuBE).

Property Value
Facility NSRRC (EPICS (Blu-Ice / DCSS))

Modelled reverse-engineered, full coverage

Generated from the descriptor

This page is generated from the descriptor at deployments/tps-07a/beamline.yaml. Edit the descriptor, not this page.

The device handles are read from the facility's public controls configuration and verified against it; vendor parts, energies, and physical positions are not in it and are carried confirm until beamline staff verify them. Source: light911/NSRRC_TPS07A.

Enclosures

Enclosure Role Facility Permit signal
TPS-07A-OH optics-hutch nsrrc confirm: PSS permit leaf not in public source; the optics hutch carries the DCM and beam-conditioning optics (PSS-1, ENC-1)
TPS-07A-EH experiment-hutch nsrrc confirm: PSS permit leaf not in public source; the experiment hutch carries the MD3 microdiffractometer, the EIGER2, and the ISARA robot (PSS-1, ENC-1)

The beamline

NSRRC's Taiwan MX beamline: micro-focus macromolecular crystallography on a single EPICS floor with a Blu-Ice / DCSS orchestration layer CORA's edge would replace, the 2-BM seam rather than the MX3 seam.

  • Source: the beam, produced and conditioned before the sample.
  • Sample: the sample environment and its positioning.
  • Detector: what records the beam after the sample.
  • Controls: the control plane CORA's edge conducts over.

Not yet documented

This beamline has no Operations runbook and no live Experiment view, because CORA does not drive it yet. Both pages describe what an operator does with a running system, so writing them for a beamline CORA only models would be invention rather than documentation. The pilot at 2-BM carries both, and shows the shape they take once a deployment goes live.
