## User guide
This driver is a standard sinqMotor-derived driver and does not need any specific configuration. For the general configuration, please see https://git.psi.ch/sinq-epics-modules/sinqmotor/-/blob/main/README.md.
This driver is a standard sinqMotor-derived which however uses a special low level IP Port driver (`pmacAsynIPPortConfigure`) instead of the standard `drvAsynIPPortConfigure`. For the general configuration, please see https://git.psi.ch/sinq-epics-modules/sinqmotor/-/blob/main/README.md.
The folder "utils" contains utility scripts for working with pmac motor controllers. To read their manual, run the scripts without any arguments.
- writeRead.py: Allows sending commands to and receiving commands from a pmac controller over an ethernet connection.
- analyzeTcpDump.py: Parse the TCP communication between an IOC and a MCU and format it into a dictionary. "demo.py" shows how this data can be easily visualized for analysis.
### Usage in IOC shell

turboPmac exports the following IOC shell functions:
- `turboPmacController`: Create a new controller object.
