NAME

Lab::Moose::Instrument::AMI_430 - American Magnetics magnet power supply

VERSION

version 3.903

SYNOPSIS

use Lab::Moose;

# Constructor
my $magnet_z = instrument(
    type            => 'AMI_430',
    connection_type => 'Socket',
    connection_options => { host => '169.254.226.70' },
    max_field => 1.0,
    max_rate  => 0.1,
);

$magnet_sweep = sweep(
   type  => 'Continuous::Magnet',
   instrument => $magnet_z,
   from => -0.2, to => 0.2, interval => 1,
)

Setting the maximum allowed field strength and the maximum rate are mandatory.
This model allows to change the units for field strength (kG/T) and time (min/s).
You can check this in the menu on the front panel.
For security purposes this driver does not allow changing those critical settings.

METHODS

idn

say $magnet_z->idn();

Returns the identification string of the device. It contains the AMI model number and firmware revision code.

sweep_to_field

$magnet_z->sweep_to_field( target => 0.5, rate => 0.02 );

Checks the provided field strength and rate and starts a sweep. This function waits for the device to finish.

to_zero

$magnet_z->to_zero()

Sweeps back to zero with the maximum allowed rate. This function waits for the device to finish.
