6 6  Beamline control at the P05 µCT hutch uses TANGO server as backend for most applications. At P05 the Interactive Data Language (IDL) serves as user interface to the TANGO servers. IDL procedures and functions provide the functionality to control the µCT experiment and beamline optics components conveniently. A couple of general remarks should facilitate to work with IDL at P05.
