Hi, there,

We have Delta Tau PMAC VME Motion Controller. When I replaced some of

our malfunction PMAC VME cards, I have a base address issue.

I did the following commands to set up replacement PMAC's VME base

address and communication. The designated base address is 0x807FA200 and

DPRAM address is 0x80704000.

WX$0783,$09,$04,$80,$7F,$A2,$02,$A5,$70,$E0,$80
SAVE
$$$

Then I restored configuration file to PMAC's VME and rebooted its IOC.

The error message is below.

pmacVmeConfig (1, 0x807FA200, 0x80704000, 0xa5, 2)

pmacVmeConfig: Failure probing for base address. value = -1 = 0xffffffff

= _clientQ + 0xff051efb

Could someone help me?

Thank you,

Chen
