Jakub,

Thanks, that is clever.

Hi all,

Here at NSLS2 I believe we use the following scripts to pre-load the correct PV prefix for the CA and PVA viewers respectively - the scripts are called from a button on our screens with the PV prefix as an argument:

[jwlodek@xf06bm-ws3 /]$ more /opt/css/opi/production/cs-studio-xf/ADet/nsls2edits/ImageJ_macros/css_imagej.sh
export EPICS_CA_MAX_ARRAY_BYTES=6000000
cd ~
rm EPICS_AD_Viewer.properties
echo "PVPrefix=$1" > EPICS_AD_Viewer.properties
imagej -m ~/.imagej/macros/CSS_epics.ijm

[jwlodek@xf06bm-ws3 /]$ more /opt/css/opi/production/cs-studio-xf/ADet/nsls2edits/ImageJ_macros/css_imagej_pva.sh
cd ~
rm EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer.properties
echo "channelName=$1" > EPICS_NTNDA_Viewer.properties
imagej -m ~/.imagej/macros/CSS_epics_pva.ijm

Not exactly a command line flag, but has been convenient for us.

Best,
Jakub

I don’t know how to pass the prefix but that would be a useful if we can figure out how to do it.

All,

I can start ImageJ with 

./ImageJ --run EPICS_AD_Viewer

and the EPICS_AD_Viewer is opened.

Is there a way to pass the PVPrefix at the command line?
