Hi Yasemin,
One PC is all you need, there is no need for 2.
To start with you can load an asyn record that is connected to the RS232 USB port, assuming it is a device like /dev/ttyusb0. You use the command
drvAsynSerialPortConfigure("serial0", "/dev/ttyusb0",0,0,0)
You can then open the medm screen asynOctet.adl. That will let you type commands for your device and see the response.
Is this a motor controller device? If so, then you may want to write an EPICS driver for the motor controller. To do that you need to download the synApps "motor" module. You can write a new driver by implementing the C++ classes asynMotorController and asynMotorAxis. There is a relatively simple example in motor/motorApp/ACSSrc/MCB4BDriver.cpp.

Subject: Exampe with EPICS for Beginners
Hello,
I'm new to epics. My operating system is Linux, opensuse 12.2
I installed;
Epics Base R3.14.12.3
Alarm Handler 1.2.31
MEDM 3.1.7
Probe 1.1.7.0
Asyn Driver 4-21
to my system. everythings worked fine. I tried one example using Labview. I created a server from Windows7 + Labview and I watched the datas in EPICS Probe+Linux.
Now I want to read/write value from/to Step controller. I have RS232 usb port on step controller(PL2303 HXA).
I'm having problems to design architecture. Do I have to use 2 PC to read and write data or 1 PC will be enough for this example?
Do I need more extensions different from what I installed earlier?
How to configure files ? etc..
Best Regards,
Yasemin
