EPICS Motor Variants¶

BEC exposes three closely related EPICS motor classes through ophyd_devices:

• ophyd_devices.EpicsMotor
• ophyd_devices.EpicsMotorEC
• ophyd_devices.EpicsUserMotorVME

Which one should I use?¶

The right choice depends on your EPICS motor implementation.

• If you have an ECMC-based motor, choose ophyd_devices.EpicsMotorEC to get ECMC-specific signals and checks.
• If you have a VME user motor, choose ophyd_devices.EpicsUserMotorVME to get VME-specific signals and behavior.
• For everything else, start with ophyd_devices.EpicsMotor as the normal default.
