The hkl library is a framework for diffraction computation and diffractometer control, heavily used at the SOLEIL synchrotron. It supports various types of diffractometer geometry: Eulerian 4-circle, Eulerian 6-circle, kappa 4-circle, kappa 6-circle, and z-axis geometry. For each of these it provides several numerically computed modes, such as bisector and constant psi.

This package provides a gui on top of the hkl library.

Sardana is a Supervision, Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) system for scientific installations. It is written in Python and based on the TANGO library. The hardware control and data acquisition routines can be accessed via an IPython console and a generic graphical user interface (both of which are easily extensible by the user).

TANGO is an object oriented distributed control system using CORBA, mainly developed by the Controls Section of the ALBA Synchrotron. PyTango provides bindings for its client- and server-side C++ APIs. With PyTango, you can write TANGO device servers and TANGO applications (scripts, CLIs, GUIs) that access TANGO device servers in pure Python.

This is the Python 3 version of the package.

Taurus is a Python framework for control and data acquisition CLIs and GUIs in scientific/industrial environments. It supports multiple control systems or data sources: Tango, EPICS, ... New control system libraries can be integrated through plugins.

This is the Python 3 version of the package.

taurus_pyqtgraph is an extension for the python3-taurus package. It adds the taurus.qt.qtgui.tpg submodule which provides pyqtgraph-based widgets.

TANGO is an object oriented distributed control system. It allows communication between TANGO device processes running on the same computer or distributed over the network. These processes can provide services to the control system all over the network, such as hardware control or data processing.

This package provides a TANGO accesscontrol server. It can be used to manage the users and IP addresses that are permitted to access TANGO devices.

TANGO is an object oriented distributed control system. It allows communication between TANGO device processes running on the same computer or distributed over the network. These processes can provide services to the control system all over the network, such as hardware control or data processing.

This package provides a TANGO database server using MySQL/MariaDB.

TANGO is an object oriented distributed control system. It allows communication between TANGO device processes running on the same computer or distributed over the network. These processes can provide services to the control system all over the network, such as hardware control or data processing.

This package provides a TANGO device control server. It can start, stop, or report the status of other TANGO components.

µManager is a software package for control of automated microscopes. It lets you execute common microscope image acquisition strategies such as time-lapses, multi-channel imaging, z-stacks, and combinations thereof. μManager works with microscopes from all four major manufacturers (Leica, Nikon, Olympus and Zeiss), most scientific-grade cameras and many peripherals (stages, filter wheels, shutters, etc.) used in microscope imaging (check the list of supported hardware). Since μManager runs as a plugin to ImageJ, image analysis routines are available within the application.

Unencumbered code provides a GUI for microscope image acquisition, a hardware interface layer and hardware interfacing for:

• ASI stages, filter wheels and shutters
• Arduino
• Conix filter changer
• Velleman K8055 and K8061 digital IO boards
• Leica DMI microscopes
• Ludl shutters, stages and filter Wheels
• Nikon TE2000 microscope
• Physik Instrumente stages
• Pecon stage incubators
• Prior shutters, stages and filter wheels
• Spectral LMM5 laser controller
• Sutter shutters, filter wheels and DG4
• Vincent Uniblitz shutters
• Yokogawa spinning disk confocal CSU22 and CSUX
• Zeiss microscopes (two 'generations')
• iidc1394 compatible cameras (through libdc1394)

The GDA project is an open-source framework for creating customised data acquisition software for science facilities such as neutron and x-ray sources. The software is Java/Eclipse-based, free and released under the GPLv3.

It is based on the Generic Data Acquisition (GDA) software developed at Diamond Light Source. The GDA was initially developed at SRS Daresbury but since 2003 it has been adopted by Diamond Light Source who took over as the principal developer. The team at Diamond have developed the GDA for the majority of Diamond beamlines across all the scientific techniques at Diamond. GDA is the evolution of that project and is intended to be applicable for any beamline on any synchrotron facility.

From the outset the GDA has been designed to be generic and flexible in its architecture to enable it to be customisable for any beamline and any underlying hardware control system.
