1 Control software and MxCube integration
Flex robotics: a versatile sample changer for macromolecular crystallography applications Control software and MxCube integration

2 Flex robotics variants
FlexED8 FlexED3 FlexHCD ED3 : EdgeDewar3 ED8 : EdgeDewar8 HCD : High Capacity Dewar

3 Dewars ED8: EdgeDewar8 HCD: High Capacity Dewar Patented EMBL design
Open (no ports) Self cleaning Permits short dewar access Eight uni-puck footprint slots ProxiSens puck detection system HCD: High Capacity Dewar Modified ESRF design 12 SC3 puck footprint & 12 uni-puck puck footprint

4 Control software architectures
Two ≠ software architecture with same StaubCom device server MxCube Java high level control software StaubCom low level server Exporter protocol StaubCom protocol Python client StaubCom protocol

5 StaubCom generic device server and API for Staubli robots
Socket based Ethernet communication with clients Core Features: Keep-alive messages Update and log messages about robot status Dynamic loading of custom movement sequences and custom PLCs The API permits to implement custom: Movement sequences PLCs Variable and IO state notification to the client Initialization and termination scripts Log and error messages software.embl-em.de

6 Control software architecture
MxCube Java high level control software StaubCom low level server Exporter protocol StaubCom protocol Python client StaubCom protocol

7 Flex robotics control architecture with Java
beamline control software (e.g.: MxCube) VAL3 StaubCom server IO management Tango, Tine, Exporter, WebServices, Epics, … Modbus (Ethernet) StaubCom Protocol Socket (Ethernet) VAL3 PLCs for low level regulation tasks movement sequences: Loading Unloading … OneWire: Gripper identification Camera + image processing: Gripper calibration Pin detection DM reader ProxiSense Card: Puck presence & type detection

8 Control software architecture
MxCube Java high level control software StaubCom low level server Exporter protocol StaubCom protocol Python client StaubCom protocol

9 Flex robots MxCube integration
Based on the GenericSampleChanger class (Alaxandre Gobbo) Development done by Akim Khadrouche (former BM14 technician) Communication using Exporter protocol (JLib) Supports events Error and log messages Robot status

10 Sample changers with Java control software & StaubCom device server / API
Flex robots FlexHCD : ID30B - ESRF FlexED8 : BM14 (dismanteled) - ESRF FlexED3 : HTXLab – EMBL Other sample changers RoboDiff : Massif 1 - ESRF NSLS-II Sample Changer: 17.ID.1 & 17.ID.2 - BROOKHAVEN

11 RoboDiff and ESRF-Flex-HCD
RoboDiff (Massif-1) SPINE Sample Changer Diffractometer VAL3 integration of external devices ESRF-FlexHCD Versatile sample changer External devices helping the sample handling

12 ESRF-FlexHCD Control software architecture
StaubCom device server Python client integrated in a Bliss device server MxCube Java high level control software StaubCom low level server Exporter protocol StaubCom protocol Python client StaubCom protocol

13 ESRF-FlexHCD Control software architecture
StaubCom device server Python client integrated in PyFlex BLISS controller : Trajectories handling : Ueye camera image analysis (Lima library) Microscan Data matrix reading (Ethernet socket) Cached variable updates External device : 1-wire memory reading (pyowfs) Proxisense card (serial line socket) Logging of StaubCom and PyFlex + Command line debugging option No GUI automatically exported as a generic TANGO server

14 ESRF-FlexHCD integrated in MX-CuBE2
Sample Changer Tab using the generic sample changer Class : Sample position list Basic commands: Loading / unloading change gripper Sample reset Abort Data collection list: Chained loading Automatic processing
