Parameters:

callback (callable) – Expected signature: f(ophydobj_instance)
fail_if_late (boolean) – If True, verify that OphydObj has not yet been instantiated and raise RuntimeError if it has, as a way of verify that no instances will be “missed” by this registry. False by default.

Register a status object to be cancelled when the device is stopped.

Parameters:: status (StatusBase) – The status object to be cancelled.

check_value(value, **kwargs)#

Check if the value is valid for this object

This function does no normalization, but may raise if the value is invalid.

Raises:: ValueError –

clear_sub(cb, event_type=None)#

Remove a subscription, given the original callback function

See also subscribe(), unsubscribe()

Parameters:

cb (callable) – The callback
event_type (str, optional) – The event to unsubscribe from (if None, removes it from all event types)

complete() → DeviceStatus | StatusBase#: Complete the device.

configure(d: Dict[str, Any]) → Tuple[Dict[str, Any], Dict[str, Any]]#

Configure the device for something during a run

This default implementation allows the user to change any of the configuration_attrs. Subclasses might override this to perform additional input validation, cleanup, etc.

Parameters:

d (dict) – The configuration dictionary. To specify the order that the changes should be made, use an OrderedDict.

Returns:

(old, new) tuple of dictionaries
Where old and new are pre- and post-configure configuration states.

property connected#

Subclasses should override this

describe() → OrderedDictType[str, Dict[str, Any]]#

Provide schema and meta-data for read().

If at the top of its hierarchy, parent will be None

pause() → None#

Attempt to ‘pause’ the device.

This is called when ever the RunEngine is interrupted.

A device may have internal state that means plans can not safely be re-wound. This method may: put the device in a ‘paused’ state and/or raise NoReplayAllowed to indicate that the plan can not be rewound.

Raises:: bluesky.run_engine.NoReplayAllowed –

pre_scan() → DeviceStatus | StatusBase | None#: Pre-scan function.

put(dev_t, **kwargs)#

Put a value to all components of the device

Keyword arguments are passed onto each signal.put()

Parameters:: dev_t (DeviceTuple or tuple) – The device tuple with the value(s) to put (see get_device_tuple)

read() → OrderedDictType[str, Dict[str, Any]]#

Read data from the device.

This method is expected to be as instantaneous as possible, with any substantial acquisition time taken care of in trigger().

The OrderedDict returned by this method must have identical keys (in the same order) as the OrderedDict returned by describe().

By convention, the first key in the return is the ‘primary’ key and maybe used by heuristics in bluesky.

The values in the ordered dictionary must be dict (-likes) with the keys {'value', 'timestamp'}. The 'value' may have any type, the timestamp must be a float UNIX epoch timestamp in UTC.

Returns:: data – The keys must be strings and the values must be dict-like with the keys {'value', 'timestamp'}
Return type:: OrderedDict

read_configuration() → OrderedDictType[str, Dict[str, Any]]#

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

To control which fields are included, change the Component kinds on the device, or modify the configuration_attrs list.

property report#: A report on the object.

resume() → None#

Resume a device from a ‘paused’ state.

This is called by the bluesky.run_engine.RunEngine when it resumes from an interruption and is responsible for ensuring that the device is ready to take data again.

property root#: Walk parents to find ultimate ancestor (parent’s parent…).

classmethod set_defaults(*, connection_timeout=10.0)#

Set class-wide defaults for device communications

This may be called only before any instances of Device are made.

This setting applies to the class it is called on and all its subclasses. For example,

>>> Device.set_defaults(...)

will apply to any Device subclass.

Parameters:: connection_timeout (float, optional) – Time (seconds) allocated for establishing a connection with the IOC.
Raises:: RuntimeError – If called after EpicsSignalBase has been instantiated for the first time.

stage() → list[object] | DeviceStatus | StatusBase#: Stage the device.

property staged: Staged#: Check if the device has been staged.

start_live_mode() → None[source]#: Start live mode.

stop(*, success: bool = False) → None#

Stop the device.

Parameters:: success (bool) – True if the action was successful, False otherwise.

stop_live_mode() → None[source]#: Stop live mode.

property stopped: bool#: Check if the device has been stopped.

subscribe(callback, event_type=None, run=True)#

Subscribe to events this event_type generates.

The callback will be called as cb(*args, **kwargs) with the values passed to _run_subs with the following additional keys:

sub_type : the string value of the event_type obj : the host object, added if ‘obj’ not already in kwargs

if the key ‘timestamp’ is in kwargs _and_ is None, then it will be replaced with the current time before running the callback.

The *args, **kwargs passed to _run_subs will be cached as shallow copies, be aware of passing in mutable data.

Warning

If the callback raises any exceptions when run they will be silently ignored.

Parameters:

callback (callable) –
A callable function (that takes kwargs) to be run when the event is generated. The expected signature is
```
def cb(*args, obj: OphydObject, sub_type: str, **kwargs) -> None:
```
The exact args/kwargs passed are whatever are passed to _run_subs
event_type (str, optional) –
The name of the event to subscribe to (if None, defaults to the default sub for the instance - obj._default_sub)

This maps to the sub_type kwargs in _run_subs
run (bool, optional) – Run the callback now
