Attributes:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| PositionScalar: DevULong | Slide state as a DevULong (each bit representing one slide). Mainly used for testing, thus set to expert mode. |
| AttenuationScalar: DevDouble | Beam attenuation in %. Since there is only a limited number of slide combinations and thus a limited number of possible attenuation values, you will almost never get precisely the attenuation you input here, but the value closest to the one you asked for. |
| UseOnlyScalar: DevString | If you set this to any of the blade materials (e.g. Al), only blades with this material will be used when setting up the desired attenuation. Special value `any` sets the use of all blades. If you want to put in more than one material, separate names by `;` or `,`. |
| NextUpperScalar: DevDouble | The next attenuation value higher than the one set which would result in a slide configuration change. |
| NextLowerScalar: DevDouble | The next attenuation value lower than the one set which would result in a slide configuration change. |
| SlidersInSpectrum: DevBoolean | Spectrum of the number of sliders in the system) telling which sliders are in the IN position. Only read. |
| SetInSpectrum: DevLong | Spectrum of number of sliders in the system. for selecting the sliders that should be put in (they will be only move after executing the Move command). The read value indicates the sliders currently selected. 0 = not moved in 1 = moved in |
| SlidersOutSpectrum: DevBoolean | Spectrum of thenumber of sliders in the system)telling which sliders are in the OUT position. Only read. |
Commands:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| StateInput: DevVoid Output: State Device state |
This command gets the device state (stored in its device_state data member) and returns it to the caller. |
| StatusInput: DevVoid Output: ConstDevString Device status |
This command gets the device status (stored in its device_status data member) and returns it to the caller. |
| MoveInput: DevVoid Output: DevVoid |
Move to the in position the sliders set in the SetIn attribute. |

Properties:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| NumberOfSlidesDevLong | Number of slides in the absorber device |
| DynAttrListArray of DevString | for internal use only |
| GaugesArray of DevDouble | The gauge / thickness of the single slides, one per line in µ. |
| InvertIOLogicDevBoolean | Depending on the assembly position (upside down or not) it might be necessary to invert the logic of true ( = slide in) and false ( = slide out). If this is set to true, the logic will be inverted. |
| XrayLibDeviceDevString | Device name of xraylib server |
| EnergyAttributeDevString | Attribute name where we can get the beam energy, e.g: petra/globals/keyword/Energy |
| MaterialsArray of DevString | Atomic number of material the slides are made of, one per line |
| SimulationModeDevBoolean | — |
| AbsorberDeviceDevString | Device name of server controlling absorber hardware. The device has to provide: One void command `SetSliders`` taking a DevULong as argument; the bits of the argument represent the state of the sliders, 0 for out, 1 for in. One readable Spectrum attribute of DevBoolean. Each element represents one slide, true for in, false for out. |
