class lsst.ts.tunablelaser.Laser(csc, terminator, encoding, simulation_mode=False)¶

Bases: ABC

Implement common Laser interface.

Parameters:

cscLaserCSC: The CSC object.
terminatorbytes: The characters that terminate sent/received messages.
encodingstr: The type of encoding to use.
simulation_modebool, optional: Is the laser being simulated?

Attributes:

cscLaserCSC: The CSC object.
terminatorbytes: The characters that terminate sent/received messages.
encodingstr: The type of encoding to use.
loglogging.Logger: The log of the component.
simulation_modebool: Is the laser being simulated?
commanderlsst.ts.tcpip.Client: A TCP/IP client.

Attributes Summary
