INTER

[Tom-Willemsen]

Probably somewhat similar to POLREF (but less similar than OFFSPEC is, because they have a 2d rather than 1d detector)

• Figure out what is or is not similar compared to POLREF, and what INTER want in terms of bluesky/scanning
  • Want combined height/angle alignment
  • Very likely to be different to POLREF/OFFSPEC due to 2D vs 1D detector (not yet clear exactly how to handle the 2D detector - needs discussion with scientists)
  • 2D detector also gives the scan an extra degree of freedom which might need aligning?
• Implement code for the differences
• Implement INTER-specific plans/devices/etc in INTER's inst script area
• Sit on INTER and test it.

[Tom-Willemsen]

Will not happen imminently now due to various hardware issues on INTER. Likely to happen during September startup instead. Still aim to at least find out what would need to be implemented.

[Tom-Willemsen]

There might possibly be some space appearing in INTER's schedule later this cycle where we might want to look at this. Christy/Oleksandr will be best contacts in the first instance if so.

Initial offline setup work / discussion scheduled for 12th November.
