MXCuBE 2是MXCuBE光束线控制软件的第二代改进版，最初由ESRF（欧洲同步加速器）开发和使用。MXCuBE 2在直观的图形用户界面（GUI）中扩展了用户可用的功能和数据收集方法，同时保留了所有以前可用的功能，并允许直接纳入正在进行的和未来的开发。MXCuBE 2引入了一个扩展的抽象层，可以轻松连接任何类型的大分子晶体学（MX）硬件组件，无论是衍射仪、进样器、检测器还是光学元件。MXCuBE2还与ISPyB实验室信息管理系统协同工作，访问特定实验会话可用的样本列表，并根据ISPyB中包含的指令或通过MXCuBE2 GUI的用户输入将不同的数据收集类型与它们关联起来。MXCuBE 2的开发形成了一个富有成效的合作的核心，它汇集了几个欧洲同步加速器和一个软件开发工厂，因此，为欧洲MX用户社区的光束线控制平台的开发定义了一个新的范例。
MXCuBE2 is the second-generation evolution of the MXCuBE beamline control software, initially developed and used at ESRF - the European Synchrotron. MXCuBE2 extends, in an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI), the functionalities and data collection methods available to users while keeping all previously available features and allowing for the straightforward incorporation of ongoing and future developments. MXCuBE2 introduces an extended abstraction layer that allows easy interfacing of any kind of macromolecular crystallography (MX) hardware component, whether this is a diffractometer, sample changer, detector or optical element. MXCuBE2 also works in strong synergy with the ISPyB Laboratory Information Management System, accessing the list of samples available for a particular experimental session and associating, either from instructions contained in ISPyB or from user input via the MXCuBE2 GUI, different data collection types to them. The development of MXCuBE2 forms the core of a fruitful collaboration which brings together several European synchrotrons and a software development factory and, as such, defines a new paradigm for the development of beamline control platforms for the European MX user community.
