Modification Log from R6-5-1 to R6-5-2
======================================
1) The GNU preprocessor assertions in motor.h are deprecated with the VxWorks
6.x compiler. Test for CPU macros that are compatible with VxWorks 6.x
have been added. This change prevents an "Error: unknown bit order!"
compiler error with VxWorks 6.x.
File modified: motorApp/MotorSrc/motor.h
2) Wang Xiaoqiang (PSI) bug fix for Aerotech Ensemble communication problem
with Ensemble firmware 2.54.004 and above. Redundant EOS append in
sendAndReceive() removed.
File modified: drvEnsembleAsyn.cc
3) Minor bug fix to ACS Motion Control, SPiiPlus controller. Uninitialized
data area would sometimes cause a crash at iocInit time.

4) Matthew Pearson's (Diamond) bug fix for deferred moves broken with Motor
Simulation (devMotorSim) device driver.
File modified: MotorSimSrc/drvMotorSim.c
5) Currently, the Aerotech Ensemble home search can not be aborted from EPICS.
Therefore, the home search command has been commented out of this
release until an Ensemble firmware update resolves this problem.

With the current Aerotech Ensemble firmware a home search can not be aborted
from EPICS. Therefore, the home search command has been commented out of this

Ensemble IDE software can be used to perform a home search that can be aborted.
