Member Function Documentation

close_scanner()

def mw_differential_scanner.ConfocalScannerInterfaceDummy.close_scanner

(

self

)

Closes the scanner and cleans up afterwards.

Returns

int: error code (0:OK, -1:error)

close_scanner_clock()

def mw_differential_scanner.ConfocalScannerInterfaceDummy.close_scanner_clock	(		self,
			power = 0
	)

Closes the clock and cleans up afterwards.

Returns

int: error code (0:OK, -1:error)

get_position_range()

def mw_differential_scanner.ConfocalScannerInterfaceDummy.get_position_range

(

self

)

Returns the physical range of the scanner.

Returns

float [4][2]: array of 4 ranges with an array containing lower and upper limit

get_scanner_axes()

def mw_differential_scanner.ConfocalScannerInterfaceDummy.get_scanner_axes

(

self

)

Dmmy scanner axes.

get_scanner_position()

def mw_differential_scanner.ConfocalScannerInterfaceDummy.get_scanner_position

(

self

)

Get the current position of the scanner hardware.

Returns

float[]: current position in (x, y, z, a).

reset_hardware()

def mw_differential_scanner.ConfocalScannerInterfaceDummy.reset_hardware

(

self

)

Resets the hardware, so the connection is lost and other programs can access it.

Returns

int: error code (0:OK, -1:error)

scan_line()

def mw_differential_scanner.ConfocalScannerInterfaceDummy.scan_line	(		self,
			line_path = None,
			pixel_clock = False
	)

Scans a line and returns the counts on that line.

Parameters

float[][4]	line_path: array of 4-part tuples defining the voltage points
bool	pixel_clock: whether we need to output a pixel clock for this line

Returns

float[]: the photon counts per second

scanner_set_position()

def mw_differential_scanner.ConfocalScannerInterfaceDummy.scanner_set_position	(		self,
			x = None,

			clock_channel = None,
			scanner_ao_channels = None
	)

Configures the actual scanner with a given clock.

Parameters
