Hi everyone,

 

is someone using (or have ever used) a TIP850 Industry Pack module from TEWS with EPICS?

I have a SBS/GreenSpring VIPC616 VME-card which carries two of such modules. I can compile a RTEMS-IOC with the epics ipac-module running on a MVME2100. The IOC finds the VIPC616 card with the two TIP850 modules:

 

ipacAddVIPC616(0xD000,0x80000000)

.

.

192.168.99.250> ipacReport(2)
  IP Carrier  0: SBS/GreenSpring VIPC616, 4 slots
    C0 S0 : 0xb3/0x09
      ID = 0x9fffd080, I/O = 0x9fffd000
    C0 S1 : 0xb3/0x09
      ID = 0x9fffd180, I/O = 0x9fffd100
    C0 S2 : No IPAC ID
      ID = 0x9fffd280, I/O = 0x9fffd200
    C0 S3 : No IPAC ID
      ID = 0x9fffd380, I/O = 0x9fffd300

 

Do I need an additional driver for the TIP850 to connect to the I/O-channels?

The epics ipac-module has support for the TIP810 CAN bus interface. Would a TIP850 driver look similar to this one?

 

Best regards

Michael
