@dooryhee Would you be able to comment on this? I don't think xpdAcq has a setting for the robot barcode reading.
A bypass option is not build-in. That would require modification of the LabVIEW software that runs the robot at a low level. A patch could be added and I am working with the manufacturer (SQUARE-ONE) to figure out what it would take.
The barcode reading can be turned on and off during transit. The process variable is XF:28IDC-ES:1{SM}Cmd:Enable-BarcodeScan. Ji Li and Hui tested it under CSS.
Sample change with robot sample should be quicker than entering hutch and pushing buttons.
Current Behavior
Excluding exposure time, robot is spending ~ 2 minutes on loading/unloading sample. 30-40 seconds of this time spent on reading the barcode on the sample holder.
Possible Solution
Disable reading the barcode and save many seconds.
