MeasurementGroup

MeasurementGroup Sardana-Taurus extension.

Setting configuration parameters using e.g., setEnabled or setTimer, etc. by default applies changes on the server. Since setting the configuration means passing to the server all the configuration parameters of the measurement group at once this behavior can be changed with the apply=False. Then the configuration changes are kept locally. This is useful when changing more then one parameter. In this case only setting of the last parameter should use apply=True or use applyConfiguration afterwards:

# or in a macro use: meas_grp = self.getMeasurementGroup("mntgrp01")
meas_grp = taurus.Device("mntgrp01")
meas_grp.setEnabled(False, apply=False)
meas_grp.setEnabled(True, "ct01", "ct02")
