move_axis
Description
Moves an axis to the given position in units of counts.
Signature
move_axis(self, axis: int, cts: int, vel: Optional[int] = None, accel: Optional[int] = None, wait: bool = True) -> CmdToken
Parameters
axis: int
The axis to move [0, 7].
cts: int
The position to move the axis to in units of counts.
vel: int, optional
Max velocity of the move in units of counts per second [0, 100000]. Values [0, 100] are interpreted as a percentage of the maximum velocity (100,000 cts/s). If the accel parameter is not given, the acceleration will be set to 10x the velocity in units of cts/s². Note velocity scaling may occur, as explained in goto function description.
accel: int, optional
Constant acceleration of the axis to reach the given velocity, in units of counts per second² [0, 500000]. Values [0, 100] are interpreted as a percentage of the maximum acceleration (500,000 cts/s²).
wait: bool, optional
If True, this command blocks until the move is finished.
Returns
CmdToken
A CmdToken object that can be used to follow up on the status of the move or wait for it to finish if wait = False.
