AbstractCamera#

class msfc_ccd.abc.AbstractCamera[source]#

Bases: Printable

An interface describing a generalized camera.

Attributes

`axis_tap_x`	The name of the logical axis corresponding to changing horizontal tap.
`axis_tap_y`	The name of the logical axis corresponding to changing vertical tap.
`gain`	The conversion factor between electrons and ADC counts.
`sensor`	A model of the sensor used by this camera to capture light.
`timedelta_exposure`	The current exposure length.

Methods

`__init__`()
`calibrate_temperature_adc_1`(value)	Convert the ADC 1 temperature from counts to physical units.
`calibrate_temperature_adc_234`(value)	Convert the ADC 2, 3, or 4 temperature from counts to physical units.
`calibrate_temperature_fpga`(value)	Convert the FPGA temperature from counts to physical units.
`calibrate_timedelta_exposure`(value)	Convert the exposure time from counts to physical units.
`calibrate_voltage_fpga`(value)	Convert the FPGA voltage from counts to physical units.
`dn_to_electrons`(a)	Convert an array from DN to electrons by multiplying by `gain`.
`to_string`([prefix])	Public-facing version of the `__repr__` method that allows for defining a prefix string, which can be used to calculate how much whitespace to add to the beginning of each line of the result.
