# Create beam monitor counter
# and histogram memory control object
# (ANSTO customized versions)
##############################################
# Make our special HMControl_ANSTO object with the bm controlling the hmm.
# This version can pause the histogram server after the count expires
# instead of just stopping it, so we can generate multiple datasets
# during a scan, or overlap data acquired at different scan stations.
# It can also terminate either on the counter or any of the histogram objects.
#ffr MakeHMControl_ANSTO hmc bm hmm, move to inst specific config
##############################################
# Creating scans and creating/attaching
# associated objects such as motors to drive,
# extra counters etc.
##############################################
#
# Define two scan objects which use the beam monitor counter.
#
# For hmscan, the hmc object uses the bm counter to control
# acquisition duration. In other words, the acquisition duration
# is controlled via SICS. This is fine if the duration doesn't
# need to be controlled to an accuracy of less than one second.
# The bm only allows control of acquisition duration based on
# elapsed time or number of monitor counts.
#
# For scan2, the histogram server controls acquisition duration.
# In addition to time or monitor count based termination conditions,
# the histogram server can be configured to terminate after a
# specific number of frames or periods have elapsed, or can be
# terminated in response to an external dataset signal.
# The accuracy of control of the acquisition duration is much higher
# (milliseconds versus hundreds of milliseconds).
# Also, the histogram server can be configured to extend acquisition
# so that only whole frames or periods are acquired.
# Termination condition is normally already configured via
# the histogram server's configuration files.
# If a static termination condition is already configured,
# scan2_runa can be called, with no termination condition required.
# But if the SICS user wants to dynamically commit the termination
# condition configuration to the histogram server,
# a wrapper function scan2_runb should be called instead.
# This allows the termination condition configuration to be written to
# the histogram server dynamically, under the control of SICS.
# The histogram server has a wider range of options for
# termination condition, and there are three termination condition
# arguments instead of the usual two for SICS counter objects.
#
# In both cases, we make the bm the master counter for the scan,
# so that bm statistics are acquired during the scan.
#
# 17/11/06 NOTE: The Beam Monitor is not yet interfaced directly to the
# Histogram Server. This means that for BM-controlled acquisitions,
# SICS needs to use the BM counter (i.e. use hmscan not scan2).
#
# EXAMPLES: For scan running over 5 stops and acquisition of 1 sec at each stop:
# hmscan run 5 timer 1 (termination controlled by the beam monitor)
# scan2_runb 5 TIME 100 IMMEDIATE (termination controlled by the histogram server)
#
#
# Call is: scan2_runa <n>
proc scan2_runa {n} {
# The termination condition is ignored, because the
# histogram server controls the acquisition duration
# directly in this case.
scan2 run $n timer 0
}
#
# Call is: scan2_runb <n>
proc scan2_runb {n count_method count_size count_stop} {
# Commit the termination conditions to the histogram server.
# hmm configure stores the values in the dictionary,
# then hmm init causes them to be sent to the histogram server.
# We just 'assume' they are successfully written.

hmm configure FAT_COUNT_SIZE $count_size
hmm configure FAT_COUNT_STOP $count_stop
hmm init
# The termination condition is ignored, because the
# histogram server controls the acquisition duration
# directly in this case. So, use 'timer 0' here.
scan2 run $n timer 0
}
# Simulated counter. No error rate. Required for technical reasons...
# This counter is used only to block execution till the bm count is actually reached,
# for the scan example using hmc and bm objects to control the acquisition duration from SICS.

# Define an OAT offset variable to use with both scans:
# It is possible to effectively offset the histogram filler's
# OAT table by an arbitrary amount. For overlapped data acquisitions, we can
# configure an oversized histogram period using the EXPAND_OAT parameters
# in the FAT. Then at each scan stop, before acqisition commences the offset
# can be adjusted using the OFFSET_OAT paramters of the FAT. By progressively
# stepping the OFFSET_OAT, an overlapped image can be built up.
# The global variable oatoffset is defined for this purpose.
# During the scan, this variable is incremented and can be passed
# in to an argument of set_oat_offset to provide progressively
# increasing offset, producing an overlapped histogram.
