Modification Log from R5-2 to R5-3
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
1) The update (polling) rate for the "OMS VME8/44" device driver was incorrect.
|
||||
|
||||
File modified: - omsSetup() in drvOms.cc.
|
||||
|
||||
2) When TWV is set to less than MRES, the following scenario would result.
|
||||
First, tweak forward (TWF). Since DIFF < MRES, the motor is not moved.
|
||||
Next, tweak reverse (TWR). Next TWF again. The motor record does not
|
||||
respond; i.e., DVAL and RVAL are not updated; VAL is not posted.
|
||||
A single tweak, back and forth, confirms that the motor record is not
|
||||
responding.
|
||||
The problem was that do_work() in motorRecord.c was performing the "no
|
||||
move" test before testing for new positions and posting new positions.
|
||||
|
||||
File modified: - do_work() in motorRecord.cc
|
||||
|
||||
3) The motor record would lock-up when a user tried to move off an activated
|
||||
limit switch with the OMS VME58 servo motor controller board (i.e.,
|
||||
model -8S). See above "Known Problems" item #4.
|
||||
|
||||
File modified: - set_status() in drvOms58.cc; had to force CDIR to
|
||||
match the limit switch polarity for record level code
|
||||
to see the limit switch error condition.
