Bluesky time out error¶
If you get this time out error:
<class 'str'>: (<class 'TimeoutError'>, TimeoutError('Failed to connect to mona:StopAcquisition',))
at the end of a scan using bluesky verify that the soft IOC providing the PV “mona:StopAcquisition” is up and running with:
[user2bmb@lyra,47,startup]$ cd ~/.ipython/profile_2bmb/startup/
[user2bmb@lyra,52,startup]$ caget mona:StopAcquisition
if you get:
Channel connect timed out: 'mona:StopAcquisition' not found
then you need to start the soft IOC with:
[user2bmb@lyra,47,startup]$ cd ~/.ipython/profile_2bmb/startup/
screen
softIoc -d mona.db
keypresses: [^a] then [d]
and you will get:
[user2bmb@lyra,46,startup]$ caget mona:StopAcquisition
mona:StopAcquisition Ok
