Re: Unknown error with an equipment

Hi Mark,

I tried to set DRVH to 200 in SetEpass and the asynTrace output of HSA still shows 1638.4000. Also I use caput in another terminal and the value of the Epass is still 858.475, which is equal to 1638.4000 in HSA.

Then I enabled StreamDebug and here is the partial report for setting the Epass I believe. In this case, I tried to set Epass to be 100 so that the HSA value is equal to 190.850002, but there is no response to the change.

You should set DRVH to 200 in SetEpass so the VAL filed cannot be set to more than 200.

Use caput to set SetEpass to 150 and see what happens in the asynTrace output. You can also enable StreamDebug if you still have problems.

Hi Mark and Andrew,

I added asynSetTraceMask("IDEA",-1,0x9) and asynSetTraceIOMask("IDEA",-1,0x2) in st.cmd to monitor the outputs from IDEA. Here is the first few lines from the output:

I realize that the default get and set voltage is exceed the range of the operation (terminal.chamber6:10002 read 8 1638.400), which can't be handled by the power supply. The maximum value in the DB file should be 200. The problem is that I cannot set the output voltage properly. When I try to set the voltage in CSS, there is no response from the changing. Below shows the logging.

I would like to know how to initialize the set values to the devices in the db file. Below the the corresponding db.

  field(DTYP, "stream")
  field(INP, "@IDEA.proto Get_HSA $(interface)")
  field(PREC, "3")
  field(EGU, "V")
  field(HOPR, "200")
  field(LOPR, "0")
  field(AOFF, "0")
  field(ASLO, "0.5239717")
}

record(ao, "$(P):$(NAME):SetEpass") {
  field(DTYP, "stream")
  field(OUT, "@IDEA.proto Set_HSA $(interface)")
  field(PREC, "3")
  field(EGU, "V")
  field(HOPR, "200")
  field(LOPR, "0")
  field(AOFF, "0")
  field(ASLO, "0.5239717")
  field(HIHI, "200")
  field(LOLO, "30")
  field(HIGH, "200")
  field(LOW, "30")
}

Hi Tony,

The error messages you posted ought to be self-explanatory if you read them in order:

> error:

> IDEA ImpMik:IDEA:Status: Input "#31 hv error detect" mismatch after 4 bytes
> IDEA ImpMik:IDEA:Status: got "hv error detect" where "ok" was expected
> IDEA ImpMik:IDEA:SetFilterOn: Input "#2E impossible, erro" mismatch after 1 byte
> IDEA ImpMik:IDEA:SetFilterOn: got "2E impossible, error" where "0" was expected

Your protocol for reading the status from the device says:

> #
> # Get_Status
> #
> Get_Status {
>     out "Get status";
>     in  "#%2i ok";
>     out "ver";
>     in "EFC_for_NanoESCA V01.03 B0115";
>     out "Set mode remote";
>     in "#04 remote mode";
> }

Thus you're telling StreamDevice that after it sends a "Get status" string, it will get back "#" followed by a 2-digit integer and the word "ok". The first two error message lines explain that instead of "ok" it's seeing the string "hv error detect". Have you looked at the instrument that it's talking to? I would guess there's a problem with some high voltage signal that it isn't seeing. You should probably fix the protocol file so it can accept error strings like that from the device and make them available in a stringin record instead of always assuming that the instrument is working and will never give you an error, but you might be able to resolve your immediate issue by fixing whatever the instrument is complaining about.

Always fix your first error first, then look at any error messages you get in that state — later errors are often caused by earlier ones and may go away once you've fixed the first problem.

HTH,

- Andrew
