3.3.3.37. NXmanipulator¶
Status:
base class, extends NXobject
Description:
Extension of NXpositioner to include fields to describe the use of manipulators in photoemission experiments.
Symbols:
No symbol table
- Groups cited:
Structure:
name: (optional) NX_CHAR
Name of the manipulator.
description: (optional) NX_CHAR
A description of the manipulator.
type: (optional) NX_CHAR
Type of manipulator, Hexapod, Rod, etc.
cryocoolant: (optional) NX_BOOLEAN
Is cryocoolant flowing through the manipulator?
cryostat_temperature: (optional) NX_FLOAT {units=NX_TEMPERATURE}
Temperature of the cryostat (coldest point)
heater_power: (optional) NX_FLOAT {units=NX_POWER}
Power in the heater for temperature control.
sample_temperature: (optional) NX_FLOAT {units=NX_TEMPERATURE}
Temperature at the closest point to the sample. This field may also be found in NXsample if present.
drain_current: (optional) NX_FLOAT {units=NX_CURRENT}
Current to neutralize the photoemission current. This field may also be found in NXsample if present.
sample_bias: (optional) NX_FLOAT {units=NX_CURRENT}
Possible bias of the sample with trespect to analyser ground. This field may also be found in NXsample if present.
depends_on: (optional) NX_CHAR
Refers to the last transformation specifying the positon of the manipulator in the NXtransformations chain.
POSITIONER: (optional) NXpositioner
Class to describe the motors that are used in the manipulator
TRANSFORMATIONS: (optional) NXtransformations
Collection of axis-based translations and rotations to describe the location and geometry of the manipulator as a component in the instrument. Conventions from the NXtransformations base class are used. In principle, the McStas coordinate system is used. The first transformation has to point either to another component of the system or . (for pointing to the reference frame) to relate it relative to the experimental setup. Typically, the components of a system should all be related relative to each other and only one component should relate to the reference coordinate system.
