This page is the home of the EPICS bitbus drvier support. This consists of the following components:
devBBInteract.c devBUG.dbd devBitbusStats.dbd devIObug.c drvBB232.c drvBB232.cSAVE drvBB232.h drvBitBus.c drvBitBus.h drvBitBusErr.h drvBitBusInterface.h drvMsg.c drvMsg.h drvRs232.h
Several of these components previously resided in epics/base. The first unbundled release was R1-1.
The module can drive the following types of hardware:
You can download the software from the links in the table below:
Module Version | EPICS Release | Filename | Documentation | Release Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
R1-5 | 3.14.0alpha2 | bitBus1-5.tar.gz | bitbus.html | README |
R1-4 | 3.13.2 | bitBus1-4.tar.gz | bitbus.html | None |
After obtaining a copy of the distribution, it must be installed and built for use at your site. These steps only need to be performed once for the site (unless versions of the module running under different releases of EPICS and/or the other required modules are needed).
This software was developed by John Winans, who is no longer a member of the EPICS community. It is used at APS, probably uniquely.
