Re: Siemen's PLC Interfaces

[Luedeke Andreas <andreas.luedeke@psi.ch>]

The s7plc driver is used for the Linacs of Diamond (VME IOC) and ASP (PC 
IOC), too.
In both cases read and write access of about 10Hz of a few hundred PVs 
per PLC.
No problems reported so far.

No special hardware or proprietary software required.
