we have a Wiener PL512 Power supply crate and were wondering if
anyone had written an IOC for it in Linux (or in general).
From the looks of the manufactures website it appears to only
communicate either via OPC or SNMP. We would like to use the
ethernet connection if possible - to mirror the CAEN SY2527
implementation we have.
Device support exists in the EPICS community for both OPC and SNMP
- we're just starting to deploy an IOC that monitors all our
network equipment via devSNMP support. Here at APS the person
responsible is Janet Anderson <[email protected]> but I believe we
got the original code from SNS (I'm not sure if we've contributed
our changes back to them yet though). I know that other sites such
as DESY are also using devSNMP.
My understanding of the OPC support (from BESSY I think) is that it
requires a Windows server to be running, but that might have
changed since I heard about it.
