gtos_start_oscillation

The format of the message is

gtos_start_oscillation motorName shutter deltaMotor deltaTime

where

• motorName is the name of the motor to oscillate during the exposure.

• shutter is the name of the shutter used to expose the sample.

• deltaMotor is the range of motion that the exposure should occur.

• deltaTime is the time over which the exposure should occur.

The message requests that a precision exposure be performed using the specified motor and shutter, and over the motor range and time interval specified. The speed of the motor over the deltaMotor range should be uniform.

DCSS forwards this message to the appropriate hardware server as a stoh_start_oscillation message.
