Stress test stopflow plan #49

Closed callumforrester closed 3 months ago

callumforrester commented 4 months ago

As a user I would like assurance that the stopflow plan can reliably work at the max. framerate of the pilatuses.

This depends on https://github.com/bluesky/ophyd-async/issues/355

Exact test parameters to be defined:

  1. Desired exposure time
  2. Number of frames

Acceptance Criteria

  1. Test(s) conducted
  2. Results published in this issue

how would this testing go then?

callumforrester commented 3 months ago

We would simply run the plan with appropriate parameters such that the panda will trigger the pilatus(es) as fast as they can go, according to their specifications (exact speed TBC with the beamline).

This has required us to correct ophyd-async's understanding of the pilatus' readout time: https://github.com/bluesky/ophyd-async/pull/359

So that change should be released and we should wait until the beamline is available again, then this work can go ahead.
