+### Mono:
+get energy: mono_energy_get, getE
+set energy: mono_energy_set, mvmono
+change grating: switch_grating
+get grating name: mono_grating_get()
+
+### ID:
+# set calibrated energy: 
+ID_energy_set, mvID
+# get energy read back: 
+ID_energy_get
+# set raw/uncalibrated energy: 
+ID_sp_set
+
+# switch polarization: 
+ID_switch_mode, polarization
+# get polarization: 
+ID_mode_get(), polarization_get
+
+ID_mode,ID_QP_ratio,ID_sp,ID_rbv,hv,grt = energy_get_all
+
+### energy scans:
+scan the mono with a fixed ID - monotonic: scanhv
+scan the mono with a fixed ID - table scan: scanXAS 
+scan the mono with ID tracking - table scan: scanXAS_BL
+
+### beamline apertures: 
+set apertures for current photon energy, also used to cut flux: slits_set_BL
+
+m3r_branch #uses the mirror position to determine the branch (FR check conditions)
+BL.branch #which save folder => scanIOC = BL.ioc (FR check if it’s really used)
+
+
+m3r_align
+
+energy_get_all
+mprint
+mvsample
+mvx,mvphi,mvkth,mvtth
