Re: Support for CAEN SY4527

[Jiro Fujita <jiro.fujita@gmail.com>]

Hi David, 

We, at STAR collaboration at Brookhaven National Lab, are planning to use CAEN SY4527.  We are, for the most part, using built-in EPICS IOC on it.  There are a few thing that the CAEN’s built-in EPICS would not do; for that, we are using a soft IOC running on a Linux to deal with that (mostly, we wanted to ramp in particular way). 

I assume you have looked at that, but thought give one feedback on that.  If you would like I can pass you the student’s name/e-mail who is working on the CAEN control.
