-------------------------------------------------
Running an example IOC
-------------------------------------------------
To run the example IOC, build the packages listed below, then:
1. Follow the steps in "Configuring the system for attached controllers" below.
2. Set the "EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST" environment variable to include the IP address of the server.
If it's running on the same computer, you can use the loopback IP address.
`$ export EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST='127.0.0.1'`
3. In the ``iocs/dsmIOC/iocBoot/iocDsm`` directory, run
`$ ../../bin/linux-x86_64/dsm st.cmd.md90`
for one attached MD-90 controller, or
`$ ../../bin/linux-x86_64/dsm st.cmd.md90.multi`
for eight attached MD-90 controllers. Edit this file to use more than one unit; simply comment out the ones you don't need.
4. Test using the `caget` and `caput` arguments as described in the "Example usage" section below.
-------------------------------------------------
Configuring the system for attached controllers
-------------------------------------------------
The following steps must be used in either st.cmd.md90 (for a single unit) or in st.cmd.md90.multiple (for multiple units).
st.cmd.md90.multiple includes 8 motors predefined on /dev/ttyUSB0 through /dev/ttyUSB7. Comment out all motors you don't need.
**1. Define a new serial port named "serial0" and set the location of the physical port**
`drvAsynSerialPortConfigure([serial name], [device location], 0, 0, 0)`
*e.g., `drvAsynSerialPortConfigure("serial0", "/dev/ttyUSB0", 0, 0, 0)`*
**2. Configure the port**
- Baud = 115200
- Bits = 8
- Parity = none
- Stop bits = 1
- Input end of message: "\r"
- Output end of message: "\r"
- Trace IO mask: 2
```
asynSetOption([serial name], 0, "baud", "115200")
asynSetOption([serial name], 0, "bits", "8")
asynSetOption([serial name], 0, "parity", "none")
asynSetOption([serial name], 0, "stop", "1")
asynOctetSetInputEos("serial0", 0, "\r")
asynOctetSetOutputEos("serial0", 0, "\r")
asynSetTraceIOMask("serial0", 0, 2)
```
where `[serial name]` is the name you assigned in step 1, surrounded by double quotes.
**3. Set initial parameters**
- Power supply enabled (`EPS` command)
- Deadband = 10 nm (`SDB 10` command)
```
asynOctetConnect("initConnection", [serial name], 0)
asynOctetWrite("initConnection", "EPS")
asynOctetWrite("initConnection", "SDB 10")
asynOctetDisconnect('initConnection')
```
**4. Create MD90 Controller object**
`MD90CreateController([controller name], [serial name], 1, 100, 5000)`
where `[controller name]` is the name of the motor to assign. Convention is to use "MD90n", starting with n=0.
**5. Intialize the IOC**
After the call to `iocInit` (still in the st.cmd.md90[.multiple] file), issue the following commands for each motor. The example below uses `DSM:m0` but it should be run for each line described in motor.substitutions.md90 (or motor.substitutions.md90.multiple).
````
dbpf("DSM:m0.RTRY", "0") #sets retries to 0; this is automatic on the MD90
dbpf("DSM:m0.TWV", "0.1") #Tweak distance
dbpf("DSM:m0.VMAX", "1.0") #Sets max velocity to 1 mm/s
dbpf("DSM:m0.HVEL", "1.0") #Sets max velocity to 1 mm/s
````
**6. Update the substitutions file**
Save and close the st.cmd file you've been configuring, then open the motor substitutions file (motor.substitutions.md90[.multiple]).
Ensure the values in the `pattern` block's `PORT` field match the names used in the std.cmd file.
Note that, despite this field being called "Port", they use the names of the MD90 Controller object defined above (by default, MD900, MD901, etc.
Do __not__ use the direct serial port names (by default, serial0, serial1, etc.).
