Modification Log from V4.3 to V4.4
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
1) config/RELEASE: - Changed comments to indicate that MPF_SERIAL must be
|
||||
defined if either serial or GPIB communication is
|
||||
required.
|
||||
- Updated support modules to latest releases;
|
||||
mpfSerial R1-2, MPF R1-6, EPICS base R3-13-4.
|
||||
|
||||
2) Examples: - iocBoot/iocNoMPF/st.cmd; added GDCT compatible Soft Channel
|
||||
device driver example.
|
||||
- iocBoot/iocWithMPF/[st.cmd and st_mpfserver.cmd]; for 1 CPU
|
||||
configuration, both initGpibGsTi9914() and
|
||||
HiDEOSGpibLinkConfig() must have the same GPIB server name.
|
||||
- motorExApp/Db/[SoftMotorEx.db andSoftMotorEx] ; added a GDCT
|
||||
compatible Soft channel device driver database example.
|
||||
|
||||
3) Jog Velocity and Acceleration. Two new fields (JVEL and JAR) were added to
|
||||
support jog velocity and acceleration parameters.
|
||||
Files modified: motorRecord.dbd - Added jog specific fields (JVEL and
|
||||
JAR).
|
||||
motorRecord.c -
|
||||
devIM483[PL/SM].c, devMM[3/4]000.c,
|
||||
devPM500.c, - Added Jog Velocity motor command.
|
||||
devOmsCom.c -
|
||||
|
||||
4) Travel limits can be disabled by setting dial high and low limits equal;
|
||||
i.e., DHLM = DLLM.
|
||||
File modified: motorRecord.c
|
||||
|
||||
5) A problem was discovered with entering target positions through RVAL. If
|
||||
the difference between the current and the next target position (i.e.,
|
||||
RDIF, DIFF) was less than the retry deadband (RDBD), and the next
|
||||
target position was in the "preferred direction", then the new RVAL
|
||||
was ignored.
|
||||
File modified: motorRecord.c - Root cause in do_work() was that under
|
||||
the above conditions, LVAL was not updated.
