**Status**:

  base class, extends :ref:`NXobject`

**Description**:

  Scan box and coils which deflect an electron beam in a controlled manner.

  In electron microscopy, the scan box is instructed by the microscope
  control software. This component directs the probe to controlled
  locations according to a scan scheme and plan.

**Symbols**:

  No symbol table
