Transient Buffer Device

This module implements the MCCS transient buffer device.

class MccsTransientBuffer(*args, **kwargs)

An implementation of a transient buffer Tango device for MCCS.

class InitCommand(*args, **kwargs)

A class for MccsTransientBuffer’s Init command.

The do() method below is called upon MccsTransientBuffer’s initialisation.

do(*args, **kwargs)

Initialise the attributes and properties of the MccsTransientBuffer.

Parameters:

• args (Any) – positional args to the component manager method

• kwargs (Any) – keyword args to the component manager method

Return type:

tuple[ResultCode, str]

Returns:

A tuple containing a return code and a string message indicating status. The message is for information purpose only.

__init__(*args, **kwargs)

Initialise this device object.

Parameters:

• args (Any) – positional args to the init

• kwargs (Any) – keyword args to the init

create_component_manager()

the transient buffer job id

transientFrequencyWindow()

Return the transient frequency window.

Return type:

list[float]

Returns:

the transient frequency window

main(*args, **kwargs)

Entry point for module.

Parameters:

• args (str) – positional arguments

• kwargs (str) – named arguments
