NanoBpm Device Server¶

Launching the device server¶

Let’s make it easy and see how to launch the device server:

(base) user@beamline:~/bliss$ conda activate bliss
(bliss) user@beamline:~/bliss$ export TANGO_HOST=localhost:20000
(bliss) user@beamline:~/bliss$ NanoBpm -?
usage :  NanoBpm instance_name [-v[trace level]] [-nodb [-dlist <device name list>]]
Instance name defined in database for server Wago :
        NanoBpm_server
(bliss) user@beamline:~/bliss$ NanoBpm NanoBpm_server
Ready to accept request

Configuration¶

With Beacon¶

The configuration of this device server is written inside Beacon as an yaml file, here we have the example:

device:
- tango_name: id00/NanoBpm/1
  class: NanoBpm
  properties:
    beacon_name: myNanoBpm
personal_name: NanoBpm_test
server: NanoBpm

tango_name: is the Tango Device in the form domain/family/member
personal_name: this will be the name you will use in the command line to launch the Device Server using NanoBpm personal_name
beacon_name: should coresponds to another Beacon object defined in yml that will define NanoBpm mapping and host.
