# sinqSPS

A collection of standardised SPS databases (or "modules") for interacting with
the control unit itself and other external hardware.

This makes use of the
[s7plcFW Epics driver](https://git.psi.ch/epics_driver_modules/s7plcFW) for
communication with the Siemens 7th Generation PLC via the Fetch-Write Protocol.
