Re: EPICS support for PI C-867 motor controller

[Kurt Goetze <goetze@aps.anl.gov>]

Hi Steffen,

Some if not all of these controllers use PI's "GCS" (General Command Set).
I think it would be great to have EPICS (Asyn motor record) device support
for GCS, and was thinking of looking into doing it, if it hasn't already 
been done.
