Class System

source code

Manages the whole system.

process is the current controlled process. controller is the current controller.

The whole system is executed in a separate thread. The timer is also realized as separate thread.

Instance Methods

[hide private]

__init__(self, stepsize=0.01, process=None, controller=None, logger=None)
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

source code

main_loop(self)
Realize main control loop as separate thread, so it can be running independently of the GUI timers

source code

timer_loop(self)
Realize a timer, using sleep is usually more precise than using the GUI timer

source code

start(self)
Start the main loop.

source code

stop(self)
Stop the main loop.

source code

step(self)
Make a single step of the main loop.

Instance Variables
