What CORA needs the XFP team to confirm before the model can be trusted.
XFP was reverse-engineered from the beamline's own bluesky profile collection (NSLS2/xfp-profile-collection), so the control handles in the Inventory are the beamline's real PVs, read from the startup/ files rather than confirmed by staff. Each row below is a fact the beamline team owns, not a CORA modelling choice (those are on Model). It is a delete-on-answer queue. Priorities are Blocks-build, Blocks-go-live, and Nice-to-have.
Are the optics (FE:C17B, XF:17BM-OP / XF:17BMA-OP) and the endstations (XF:17BMA-ES:1, ES:2) separate hutches?
Two enclosures: a xfp-optics zone and the xfp-endstation hutch.
The Enclosure grouping.
SRC-1
Nice-to-have
The 17-BM source (a bending magnet is implied by the name and the white-beam design; the profile collection exposes no source device, only ring current).
A bending-magnet source, observed only through the machine state.
The source Asset detail.
WHITE-1
Blocks-go-live
Is routine footprinting white beam or pink beam (filtered by the mirror cutoff and the Al filters), and is there any monochromator in the footprinting path? (A DCM exists only on a separate XAS endstation, ES:3, excluded here.)
White / pink beam, no monochromator in the footprinting path; ES:3 out of scope.
The storage-ring state XFP reads (only the ring current is read for a beam-present suspender).
Observe-only machine state, a loose StorageRing; the rest pending.
The machine-state observation.
OPT-1
Nice-to-have
The front-end mirror coating and bend mechanism (a bendable mirror with a Bend focus axis and thermocouples).
A bendable focusing Mirror; coating and bend pending.
The mirror Asset detail.
OPT-2
Nice-to-have
The blade-axis roles of the white-beam, PB / PDS, and ADC defining slits (the ADC horizontal gap sets the HTFly exposure window).
Four-blade / center-gap slits bound to Slit.
The slit Asset detail.
ATTN-1
Blocks-go-live
The attenuation chain that sets the dose RATE: the eight-position Al filter wheel, plus the intermittently-connected 0-9 mm Al z-attenuator and the beam-defining pinhole apertures.
The filter wheel binds Filter; the pinhole / z-attenuator are further attenuators carried pending.
The dose-delivery chain: the timed shutters (the EPS pre-shutter, the PPS photon shutter, the inner DIODE sample shutter), the DG535 delay generator that fires the millisecond Uniblitz fast shutter (its opening-time setpoint is the dose time), and the flux-to-absorbed-dose calibration (which lives in offline analysis).
Seconds-scale dose is software-timed on the pre-shutter (Shutter); millisecond dose is the delay-generator-fired Uniblitz (TimingController); the dose calibration is offline.
The capillary-flow sample stage axes and how a flowing solution capillary mounts in the beam.
A LinearStage for the capillary-flow stage; the flow is the fluidic seam.
The sample-stage modelling.
HT-1
Blocks-go-live
The high-throughput modes: the 96-well plate stage and addressing (8 columns x 12 rows, addressed in pure Python with a coordinate table, no robot and no PV), and the shutterless HTFly stage (exposure = defining-slit gap over stage velocity).
LinearStage stages; the well addressing and the HTFly dose-timing are Procedures over the spine plus a Subject custody thread.
The high-throughput modelling.
FLOW-1
Nice-to-have
The sample-delivery pumps (an M50 pump and a PHD2000 infusion pump, both with rate / volume setpoints) and whether the pump actuator earns a Family.
The pump binds the existing loose FlowController (i22 / 7-BM / LIX, n=4, graduation overdue); no new family coined.
The pump modelling; the CORA decision is on Model.
FC-1
Nice-to-have
The fraction collector (a PV-bound aliquot-routing actuator: a collect / waste valve, a tube index, a fill pattern) that captures footprinted aliquots, and whether it earns a Family.
Carried in the sample-custody seam (the footprinted-sample hand-off to offline MS); no FractionCollector Family coined at n=1.
The fraction-collector modelling.
SUBJECT-1
Nice-to-have
The solution Subject: a biological macromolecule (protein / nucleic acid) in a buffer, irradiated, with its own provenance.
A liquid Subject; the footprinted aliquot is the run's output, carried to offline MS.
The Subject modelling.
TEMP-1
Nice-to-have
The temperature / bias diagnostics (the SR630 thermocouple monitor and the Sydor bias / thermocouple controller), used as alignment-flux proxies.
Read-only diagnostics, not core footprinting devices; deferred.
The flux / dose monitors: the QuadEM electrometers (incident flux plus a per-exposure time-series), the DIODE PDM array-logger, and which channels measure the delivered dose.
FluxMonitor Assets; the channel map and the dose computation carried pending.
The flux / dose-monitor modelling.
DIAG-1
Nice-to-have
The Sydor beam-position monitor (per-quadrant currents, beam x / y, a sum-current total flux) and the position-versus-intensity split (the fleet-wide question).
A loose BeamPositionMonitor (held under review across 4-ID / 8-ID / 9-ID / ISS / FMX).
The beam-position-monitor catalog home.
READOUT-1
Blocks-go-live
The offline mass-spectrometry readout: what artifact the beamline hands off (a footprinted aliquot in a fraction-collector tube? a capillary?), whether a sample-ID barcode is recorded, and where the dose record is the system of record.
The beamline produces a footprinted sample plus a dose record; the MS structural analysis is downstream, off the beamline.
Are the EPICS PV handles read from the profile collection current and correct, and is the data plane Kafka plus Redis (no Tiled, no queue-server)?
The handles in the descriptor are taken from the profile collection and carried confirm; the data plane is the seam CORA's edge replaces.
Verifying each Asset's control handle and the data plane.
PSS-1
Blocks-go-live
The PSS search-and-secure permit signals and the front-end / photon shutters (only the front-end photon-shutter enable status is in the profile collection).
Permit leaves to be named; not invented here.
The Enclosure permit signals and the safety tier.
SUP-1
Nice-to-have
The vacuum extent (the white-beam optics) and the cooling supply, plus the footprinting consumables (buffers, radical scavengers, the flow medium).
Photon beam, cooling water, and vacuum on the optics; the consumables as Supply.
The Supply observations.
GOV-1
Nice-to-have
The NSLS-II operator pool and safety-review structure, and XFP's partner-beamline (Case Western) operating model.
Carried pending on the NSLS-II Site, not instantiated per beamline.
