Developer Guide

This GUI is constructed on the top of Qt framework (Qt for Python).

Dependencies

State

The state machine is listed below.

        stateDiagram-v2
[*] --> Standby
Standby --> Diagnostic : enter_diagnostic()
Diagnostic --> Enable : enter_enable()

Enable --> Diagnostic : exit_enable()
Diagnostic --> Standby : exit_diagnostic()

Standby --> Standby : fault()
Diagnostic --> Diagnostic : fault()
Enable --> Diagnostic : fault()

    

Figure 24 State diagram of local mode.

It is noted that when the fault happens, the Enable local mode will transition to the Diagnostic local mode. The other local modes keep the same.

Figure 25 Class diagram of M2 GUI

  • MainWindow is the main window of the application.

  • Model contains the main business logic in the application.

  • Config is a data class that has the configuration details in the M2 cell control system.

  • FaultManager records the system error.

  • UtilityMonitor monitors the utility status.

  • ActuatorForceAxial is a data class that has the axial force details contain the look-up table (LUT) information, force balance system, etc.

  • ActuatorForceTangent is a data class that has the tangent force details contain the look-up table (LUT) information, force balance system, etc.

  • ForceErrorTangent is a data class that is used to monitor the supporting force of mirror according to the tangential link force error.

  • LogWindowHandler handles the log window.

The model–view–controller (MVC) architecture is used in this module. In this design, the view always shows the data sent from the model. This helps to minimize the business logic in view and makes the tests easier. If you want to cache the data for a smooth showing in view, you need to do this in the Model. In accordance with the MVC architecture pattern, the controller reuses the existing module ts_m2com. This comes with the mock server, which can be used in simulation.

The Qt signal is used to do the data exchange. The emit() and connect() in the class diagrams mean the class emits a specific signal and connects it to a specific callback function. The controller is reused from the ts_m2com. Most of signals are holded and emitted from the Model or its components to simplify the management of signals. Only the SignalMessage is holded by the MainView. The SignalMessage is unrelated to the Model, which is only used to show the logged message on the overview table.

Qt provides its event loop that is different from the event loop in Python asyncio library. The qasync allows coroutines (async/await keywords) to be used in PyQt/PySide applications by providing an implementation of the PEP-3156 event-loop. For the other tasks in a loop to run, an awaitable must be called from another coroutine. This allow for the coroutine to claim CPU and performs its operations. Therefore await asyncio.sleep() calls are placed in unit tests calls, so the signal handling etc. can occur.

m2gui.signals

The available Qt signals are listed below:

  • SignalControl sends the event that the control is updated or not.

  • SignalPowerSystem sends the event that the power system is updated or not.

  • SignalError sends the error code.

  • SignalLimitSwitch sends the event of limit switch status.

  • SignalMessage sends the message event.

  • SignalStatus sends the event of system status.

  • SignalConfig sends the configuration.

  • SignalUtility sends the utility status.

  • SignalDetailedForce sends the calculated and measured force details contains LUT, force balance system, etc.

  • SignalPosition sends the rigid body position.

  • SignalScript sends the status of script progress.

  • SignalIlcStatus sends the status of inner-loop controller (ILC).

  • SignalClosedLoopControlMode sends the update status of closed-loop control mode.
