Flying scan with stage.

[Relm-Arrowny]

Goals

Acceptance criteria :

• Flying scan where the motor moves to the starting point and start toward the end point, during which the detector keep measuring as fast as it can until the endpoint is reached or stopped.
• Each measurement should matches with the motor position as closely as possible but do not have to be exact like step scan.

Tasks

base on the goals, deduce the tasks required. check them off once they're done

• Make a plan that:

1. Check motor limits
2. Move the motor to the start position.
3. read the current speed and store it
4. change the motor speed
5. set the detector running
6. change motor set point to the final destination
7. At destination stop collection reset speed.
8. clean up, set speed back to before scan, even if scan failed.

Ref:
There are two ways to get this done.

1. • The hardware trigger fly scan with panda (correct way).

• This require correct wiring into panda (ref /tutorial1_blinking_leds.html)

2. • Hit and hope fly scan. (Less accurate but can work on any motor and detector without the need of panda or wiring) Hit and hope fly scan. #34

• No hardware trigger, we just set the motor going and monitor the position and take data as fast as possible.
