ophyd.v2.core.set_and_wait_for_value#

async ophyd.v2.core.set_and_wait_for_value(signal: SignalRW[T], value: T, timeout: float = 10.0, status_timeout: float | None = None) → AsyncStatus#

Set a signal and monitor it until it has that value.

Useful for busy record, or other Signals with pattern:

  • Set Signal with wait=True and stash the Status

  • Read the same Signal to check the operation has started

  • Return the Status so calling code can wait for operation to complete

Parameters:
signal:

The signal to set and monitor

value:

The value to set it to

timeout:

How long to wait for the signal to have the value

status_timeout:

How long the returned Status will wait for the set to complete

Notes

Example usage:

set_and_wait_for_value(device.acquire, 1)
