NAME

emcGetGoniometerPosition - Retrieve the current goniometer position

SYNOPSIS

#include "emc.h"
int emcGetGoniometerPosition(EM *em, int units, double *x, double *y,
                             double *z, double a, double *b);

DESCRIPTION

emcGetGoniometerPosition() retrieves the current position of the goniometer.

*em

points to an EM control and communications structure that was returned by the emcOpen() call.

units

the units the values should be expressed in:

UNCALIBRATED_UNITS	Native goniometer positioning units of instrument
ANGSTROM_UNITS	Units are measured in angstroms
NANOMETER_UNITS	Units are measured in nanometers
MICRON_UNITS	Units are measured in microns
PIXEL_UNITS	Units are measured in pixels

*x

pointer to where to store the X-axis position

*y

pointer to where to store the Y-axis position

*z

pointer to where to store the Z-axis position

*a

pointer to where to store the A-axis position

*b
