Dear MRF driver experts,

 

I am doing some test with the quite new card (1 year), mTCA-EVRTM-300. For those who don’t know it this is an universal output extender for the MTCA-EVR-300 or even apparently for the MTCA-EVM-300.

First, is someone tried and managed to use the card with the mrfioc2 driver ?

 

For now I’m just testing it with the EVR and I have some problem.

 

My issue :

I have added a substitutions files with  only:

 

file "mrmevrout.db"

{pattern

{ON, ONSRC, OBJ, DESC}

{"$(SYS)-$(D):OutRB0-", "$(SYS)-$(D):OutRB0-Src-", "$(EVR):RearUniv0", "Rear 0"}

{"$(SYS)-$(D):OutRB1-", "$(SYS)-$(D):OutRB1-Src-", "$(EVR):RearUniv1", "Rear 1"}

{"$(SYS)-$(D):OutRB2-", "$(SYS)-$(D):OutRB2-Src-", "$(EVR):RearUniv2", "Rear 2"}

Etc …

 

My startup file

 

mrmEvrSetupPCI("EVR-MTCA5", "$(EVR_PCI5)")

and

dbLoadRecords("evr-mtca-300u.db","SYS=$(SYS),D=$(EVR), EVR=EVR-MTCA5 , PINITSEQ=$(EVR),FRF=$(FREQ),FEVT=$(FREQ)")

dbLoadRecords("evr-mtca-rtm-300.db","SYS=$(SYS),D=$(EVR), EVR=EVR-MTCA5 ")

 

The evr-mtca-300u works well, but for the rearUniv I have the following messages :

 

LABO-MPS-SBCT:TIM-EVR-1:OutRB0-Ena-SP: failed to find/create object 'EVR-MTCA5:RearUniv0' : Object not found : EVR-MTCA5:RearUniv0

LABO-MPS-SBCT:TIM-EVR-1:OutRB1-Ena-SP: failed to find/create object 'EVR-MTCA5:RearUniv1' : Object not found : EVR-MTCA5:RearUniv1

 

I have checked the register and Jukka confirmed me that we have to use the TBOutput register and RearUniv in the driver seem to correspond.

 

Have I missed something ?

 

Thanks in advance
