class ophyd_async.epics.areadetector.AravisDetector(prefix: str, path_provider: PathProvider, drv_suffix='cam1:', hdf_suffix='HDF1:', name='', gpio_number: Literal[1, 2, 3, 4] = 1)[source]#

Bases: StandardDetector, HasHints

Ophyd-async implementation of an ADAravis Detector. The detector may be configured for an external trigger on a GPIO port, which must be done prior to preparing the detector

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.
