TangoDevice

class TangoDevice(name='', **kw)

A Device object representing an abstraction of the PyTango.DeviceProxy object in the taurus.core.tango scheme

Import from taurus.core.tango as:

from taurus.core.tango import TangoDevice

addListener(listener)

cleanUp()

The cleanUp. Default implementation does nothing Overwrite when necessary

property description

eventReceived(event_src, event_type, event_value)

getAttribute(attrname)

Returns the attribute object given its name

getDescription(**kwargs)

Deprecated since version 4.0: Use .description instead

getDeviceProxy()

getDisplayDescrObj(cache=True)

A brief description of the model. Can be used as tooltip, for example.

getDisplayValue(**kwargs)

Deprecated since version 4.0: Use .state.name instead

getHWObj(**kwargs)

Deprecated since version 4.0: Use getDeviceProxy() instead

getLockInfo(cache=False)

getSWState(**kwargs)

Deprecated since version 4.0: Use state instead

getState(**kwargs)

Deprecated since version 4.0: Use .stateObj.read().rvalue [Tango] or .state [agnostic] instead

getStateObj(**kwargs)

Deprecated since version 4.0: Use .stateObj [Tango] or .factory.getAttribute(state_full_name) [agnostic] instead

getValueObj(**kwargs)

Deprecated by TEP14.

..warning::

this bck-compat implementation is not perfect because the rvalue of the returned TangoAttributeValue is now a member of TaurusDevState instead of TaurusSWDevState

Deprecated since version 4.0: Use state [agnostic] or stateObj.read [Tango] instead

isValidDev(**kwargs)

see: TaurusDevice.isValid()

Deprecated since version 4.0: Use getDeviceProxy() is not None instead

lock(force=False)

poll(attrs, asynch=False, req_id=None)

optimized by reading of multiple attributes in one go
