Dear core developers, I have to keep explaining PVA concepts to my colleagues over and over. To help myself in the task, I wrote a short piece of text where I tried to summarize the concepts of pvData.
I picked up and edited pieces from different sources, mainly from the V4 website documents (Marty et al) and added some text of my own. Please take a look here:
https://docs.epics-controls.org/en/latest/guides/OverviewOfpvData.html It is not yet linked from the top menu that Ralph created in the Documentathon. Before doing that I would ask you to check: -if the text is factually correct or have I misunderstood something, -is it complete enough (i.e., have I missed something essential), -is the amount of detail appropriate; I intentionally reduced the amount of detail, to highlight the concepts in a concise way -any other suggestions and corrections (grammar, style) are also most welcome. And also let me know if this has enough value to be added into the introductory documentation. Timo |
