Description
An EPICS Input/Output Controller (IOC) for HKL crystallography calculations and diffractometer control is introduced. The IOC brings real-time, bidirectional crystal diffraction computations into seamless beamline control. This IOC, built using PyDevice, bridges efficient C‑based core calculations with flexible Python bindings, providing powerful forward and inverse crystallographic transformations (real-space motor rotations to reciprocal-space Miller indices, and vice-versa) across diverse diffractometer geometries—including 4‑circle, 6‑circle, and kappa setups. The interface is delivered through a Phoebus CSS GUI, enabling users to define lattice constants, compute UB matrices, refine alignment, and perform scan planning in reciprocal space.
