  abstract     = {{CoSAXS is the Coherent and Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) beamline placed at the diffraction-limited 3 GeV storage ring at MAX IV Laboratory. This paper presents the data acquisition (DAQ) strategy for combined SAXS, Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) and Fluorescence Spectroscopy techniques. In general terms, the beamline control system is based on TANGO and on top of it, Sardana provides an advanced scan framework. Sardana performs the experiment orchestration, configuring and preparing the X-ray detector and the Spectrometers for UV-Vis and Fluorescence. Hardware triggers are used to synchronize the DAQ for the different techniques running simultaneously. The implementation is done using PandABox, which generates pulse trains for the X-ray detector and spectrometers. PandABox integration into the system is done with a Sardana Trigger Gate Controller, used to configure the pulse trains parameters as well to orchestrate the hardware triggers during a scan. This paper describes the individual techniques’ integration into the control system, the experiment orchestration and synchronization and the new experiment possibilities this multi-technique DAQ system brings to MAX IV beamlines. }},
