This module is different from the others. It does a "motor scan", displays certain values In runs with several calibration cycles and one (or more) control PV (process variable), this module displays scalar values from other detectors as a function of scan step of a motor scan. The motor name is given in the xtc file as the Control PV. There may be more than one control PV. It currently takes two scalar type inputs to evaluate the scan:

input_epics         # Name(s) of other scalars to correlate in scan
input_scalars       # Name(s) of other scalars to correlate in scan

In addition, the control PV name is added to the parameter list. Currently it is only for display, as the module picks up the active control PV withouth using this parameter.

controlpv = None

Note! The XtcExplorer behaviour is different when you check off the ControlPV checkbox! In this case only the pyana_scan module is activated, and all other selected detectors are added as input to this module.

This tool also belongs to the XtcExplorer package, and is used by the GUI. But the tool can also be run directly from the command line:
