Add step time/period calculation #6

Open ulrikpedersen opened 1 year ago

ulrikpedersen commented 1 year ago

Add function(s) to calculate the motion step time given the acceleration, velocity and distance and higher level functions that pull the configuration data from the running system. Investigate possibility of adding a sanity-check at the start of a scan, using the above functions to verify if a scan is likely to work when considering the laser pulse frequency.

Functions to calculate the step time and pull the configuration data from the motor have been implemented in this branch: https://github.com/8ryn/tomoscan/tree/Period-calc Sanity check needs a little more thought due to the pulse-frequency not being published as a PV.
