Installation and Building

After obtaining a copy of the distribution, it must be installed and built for use at your site. These steps only need to be performed once for the site (unless versions of the module running under different releases of EPICS and/or the other required modules are needed).

Unzip and untar the distribution, e.g. on Unix:
```
gunzip caputRecorder_R1-3.tar.gz

tar xvf caputRecorder_R1-3.tar
```
Usually this is done in an EPICS 'support' directory. It will produce the subdirectory
```
caputRecorder-1-3
```
Edit the config/RELEASE file of the application that will use caputRecorder to point to this directory.
Edit caputRecorder's configure/RELEASE file and set the paths to your installation of EPICS base.
Run make in the top level directory and check for any compilation errors.
Please email Tim Mooney so that a record can be kept of which sites are using this software.

Deployment
