Method Details

configure

public void configure()
               throws FactoryException

Description copied from class: ConfigurableBase

Default implementation for classes that do not have to do any specific configuration.
Classes that do their own configuration should *not* call this superclass function, as it may cause the object to appear configured before it really is.

Specified by:

configure in interface Configurable

Overrides:

configure in class ConfigurableBase

Throws:

FactoryException - if there is an error in configuration e.g. required variable not set or cannot connect to device

isBusy

public boolean isBusy()
               throws DeviceException

Description copied from interface: Scannable

Check if the Scannable is moving/operating.

Returns:

true - if operation carried out by moveTo has not completed yet

Throws:

DeviceException

rawAsynchronousMoveTo

public void rawAsynchronousMoveTo(Object position)
                           throws DeviceException

Description copied from class: ScannableBase

[Consider abstract] Trigger a move/operation to an internal/hardware position and return immediately.

Overrides:

rawAsynchronousMoveTo in class ScannableBase

Parameters:

position - Position in its internal/hardware representation. e.g. with units and offsets removed

Throws:

DeviceException

See Also:

• asynchronousMoveTo

rawGetPosition

public Object rawGetPosition()
                      throws DeviceException

Description copied from class: ScannableBase

[Consider abstract] Read the position in its internal (user) representation.

Overrides:

rawGetPosition in class ScannableBase

Returns:

the value represented by this Scannable

Throws:

DeviceException

See Also:

• Scannable.getPosition()

getPvName

public String getPvName()

setPvName

public void setPvName(String pvName)

isTextInput

public boolean isTextInput()

setTextInput

public void setTextInput(boolean textInput)
