children() → Iterator[Tuple[str, Device]]#

async collect_asset_docs(index: int | None = None) → AsyncIterator[Tuple[Literal['stream_resource'], StreamResource] | Tuple[Literal['stream_datum'], StreamDatum]]#

complete()#

async connect(mock: bool = False, timeout: float = 10.0, force_reconnect: bool = False)#

Connect self and all child Devices.

Contains a timeout that gets propagated to child.connect methods.

Parameters:

mock – If True then use MockSignalBackend for all Signals
timeout – Time to wait before failing with a TimeoutError.

async describe_configuration() → Dict[str, DataKey]#

async get_index() → int#

kickoff()#

property log#

property name: str#: Return the name of the Device

parent: 'Device' | None = None#: The parent Device if it exists

prepare(value: TriggerInfo) → None#

Arm detector.

Prepare the detector with trigger information. This is determined at and passed in from the plan level.

This currently only prepares detectors for flyscans and stepscans just use the trigger information determined in trigger.

To do: Unify prepare to be use for both fly and step scans.

Args:: value: TriggerInfo describing how to trigger the detector

async read() → Dict[str, Reading]#

async read_configuration() → Dict[str, Reading]#

set_name(name: str)#

Set self.name=name and each self.child.name=name+"-child".

Parameters:: name – New name to set

trigger() → None#

unstage() → None#
