__init__(overrides=None)

connect to spec

pre_execute(**kwargs)

Executed before each call to execute

All of the kwargs passed to execute are also pass to this method. It is expected that this method be overridden by subclasses.

moveAxis(axis, value, block=False)

Moves a single axis using a connection to a labview vi. @param axis: the axis id or name of the motor to move @param value: the position of the motor to move to @param block: if True, this function will not return until the move is complete.
