__init__(prefix, **kwargs)#

Methods

__init__(prefix, **kwargs)

add_instantiation_callback(callback[, ...])

Register a callback which will receive each OphydObject instance.

check_value(value)

Check if the value is within the setpoint PV's control limits

clear_sub(cb[, event_type])

Remove a subscription, given the original callback function

describe()

Return the description as a dictionary

describe_configuration()

Provide schema & meta-data for BlueskyInterface.read_configuration()

destroy()

Disconnect the Signal from the underlying control layer; destroy it

get(*[, as_string, timeout, ...])

Get the readback value through an explicit call to EPICS.

get_setpoint(*[, as_string, timeout, ...])

Get the setpoint value (if setpoint PV and readback PV differ)

put(value[, force, connection_timeout, ...])

Using channel access, set the write PV to value.

read()

Put the status of the signal into a simple dictionary format for data acquisition

read_configuration()

Dictionary mapping names to value dicts with keys: value, timestamp

set(value, *[, timeout, settle_time])

Set the value of the Signal and return a Status object.

set_default_timeout(**kwargs)

set_defaults(*[, timeout, ...])

Set class-wide defaults for EPICS CA communications

subscribe(callback[, event_type, run])

Subscribe to events this event_type generates.

trigger()

Call that is used by bluesky prior to read()

unsubscribe(cid)

Remove a subscription

unsubscribe_all()

wait_for_connection([timeout])

Wait for the underlying signals to initialize or connect
