Re: OMS VS4 "omsPut: card 0 send ring full!"

[Ron Sluiter <sluiter@aps.anl.gov>]

Hello Nerses,

If the drvOms driver is configured to use VMEbus interrupts
(i.e., omsSetup() interrupt vector argument is nonzero), then
the driver puts messages going to the controller into an EPICS ring
buffer and enables the controller's transmit IRQ.

One guess (I have never seen this error message before, so
this guess is in the category of 'wild') is that the omsSetup()
interrupt level argument does not match the jumper on the
board.

Another guess, if you are upgrading from a very old version of
the motor record to a recent version, could be this (from the
"Motor Record: Known problems with Release 5-9"

An undocumented change was made in R5-4 to two OMS setup functions. Namely, the unused 2nd argument ("axes per card") was eliminated from omsSetup() and oms58Setup().

If I missed on both the above guesses, let me know.

Ron

"omsPut: card 0  send ring full!"

In my setup I've MVME 2300 on VxWorks 5.5 with EPICS R3.14.12.
Motor controller card is OMS VS4.

Any help would be appreciated.
