Re: How to configure the Capfast?

[Brian Bevins <bevins@jlab.org>]

One thing you should do is to make sure that ~p3/library/epics appears
in the symbol search path. To do this:

Start Capfast.
>From the menubar, select Options->Search Path->Show Search Path.

The search path will be displayed at the bottom of the window. If
~p3/library/epics does not appear in the search path, you can add it
with Options->Search Path->Add Directory to Beginning.

I hope that helps.
