PiezoMotor PMD90 EPICS Device Support
=====================================
EPICS StreamDevice driver for PiezoMotor PMD90 single-axis microstepping piezo drivers.
This is a simple driver that only gives access to:
1. Raw and calculated encoder positions
2. Waveform mode settings
3. Movement in positive/negative steps, stopping
4. Writing to NVRAM
5. Movement, digital input status
Requirements
------------
Though it may work on other versions, the driver was tested on these:
1. EPICS base 3.14.12.3 http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/
2. asyn 4-18 http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/modules/soft/asyn/
3. StreamDevice 2.5+ http://epics.web.psi.ch/software/streamdevice/
Optional
--------
1. EDM http://ics-web.sns.ornl.gov/edm/log/getLatest.php
Installation
------------
1. Install EPICS
1. If using a Debian-based system (e.g., Ubuntu), use the packages here http://epics.nsls2.bnl.gov/debian/
2. If no packages are available for your distribution, build from source
2. Edit configure/RELEASE
1. Point the directories listed in there to the appropriate places
2. If using the Debian packages, everything can be pointed to /usr/lib/epics
3. Edit iocBoot/iocPMD90/st.cmd
1. Change the shebang on the top of the script if your architecture is different than linux-x86:
#!../../bin/linux-x86/PMD90
(check if the environment variable EPICS_HOST_ARCH is set, or perhaps `uname -a`, or ask someone if
you don't know)
2. The following lines set the prefix to all of the additional (i.e., non-motor record) PVs (with $(P)$(R)):
```
epicsEnvSet "P" "$(P=E1:)"
epicsEnvSet "R" "$(R=PMD90:)"
```
Set the second quoted strings appropriately.
3. If the devices have been modified to allow RS-232 connections via a serial device server, set the IP address of the server here:
```
epicsEnvSet "PMD90_IP" "$(PMD90_IP=10.0.0.11)"
epicsEnvSet "PMD90_PORT" "$(PMD90_PORT=4015)"
```
If not, comment out the drvAsynIPPortConfigure line and uncomment
```
## for direct connection to the machine's serial port:
# drvAsynSerialPortConfigure("$(ASYN_PORT)", "/dev/ttyUSB0", 0, 0, 0)
```
4. For each device, load the necessary records:
```
dbLoadRecords("$(TOP)/db/devPMD90.db","P=$(P),R=$(R),PORT=$(ASYN_PORT),A=0")
```
4. Go to the top directory and `make`
5. If all goes well:
```
$ cd iocBoot/iocPMD90
$ chmod +x st.cmd
$ ./st.cmd
```
6. Run EDM:
```
$ export EDMDATAFILES=$TOP/op/edl:$EDMDATAFILES
$ edm -x -m "P=E1:,R=PMD90:" PMD90
```
TODO
----
1. PCRE should not be required -- can edit `read_string` to use different syntax.
2. Is this all the functionality the PMD90 has? ...
