Mythen detectors¶
This is the basic Python class to controll Mythen detectors (Microstrip system for time-resolved experiments).
Using the Mythen detectors module¶
Usage of Python class for EPICS Mythen detectors (Microstrip system for time-resolved experiments).
-
class
py4syn.epics.MythenClass.Mythen(pvPrefix, mnemonic)[source]¶ -
canMonitor()[source]¶ Abstract method to check if the device can or cannot be used as monitor.
Returns: - out : bool
-
canStopCount()[source]¶ Abstract method to check if the device can or cannot stop the count and return values.
Returns: - out : bool
-
getValue(**kwargs)[source]¶ Abstract method to get the current value of a countable device.
Parameters: - kwargs : value
Where needed informations can be passed, e.g. select which channel must be read.
Returns: - out : value
Returns the current value of the device. Type of the value depends on device settings.
-
isCounting()[source]¶ Abstract method to check if the device is counting or not.
Returns: - out : bool
-
setCountTime(t)[source]¶ Abstract method to set the count time of a countable target device.
Parameters: - t : value
