Matthew,

Is the call to pmacAsynIPPortConfigure() that is mentioned in this older tech-talk message no longer needed in the latest version of tpmac?:

Hi Zhan,

The tpmac support module has support for ethernet PMACs. There is an Asyn interpose layer that deals with the additional protocol that the ethernet PMACs need.

In your IOC startup file, you'll need something like this:

#Asyn PORT name, #IP address and IP port
pmacAsynIPConfigure("pmacLV", "172.23.243.156:1025")

#Asyn PORT name, #Asyn ADDR, #Card ID, #Number of axes
pmacAsynMotorCreate("pmacLV", 0, 0, 8)

#Asyn PORT name for motor record, #Asyn motor driver name, #Card ID, #Number of axes+1
drvAsynMotorConfigure("PMAC1", "pmacAsynMotor", 0, 9)

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Matthew

Subject: EPICS support for Delta Tau UMAC system

Hi folks,
	I wonder if anyone has developed EPICS support for the Delta Tau
UMAC system.  This is a 3-U rack-mount system with power supply,
drivers,
controllers, and communication board (a turbo PMAC2 board), which
communicates with the host PC via USB or Ethernet (or serial).  My
communication/CPU board has a SN # 3X0-603766 and unfortunately, I
could not
find the product on the Delta Tau webpage.
	A simple search on this list suggests there were enough work done
on
the PMAC-VME controller.  But I don't see any related to the UMAC
system I
have.  Anyone has any information?  Thanks a lot!

Zhan
