asynPortDriver createParam complains duplicated parameter name

["Kim, Kukhee" <khkim@slac.stanford.edu>]

Hi Mark,

 

I am using asyn R4-31  for LCLS1 mission readiness LLRF project.

During creating parameters for asyn Port driver, I got error messages as the followings:

 

2018/03/26 21:48:32.076 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC5 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 21:48:32.076 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC6T4 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 21:48:32.076 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC6 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 21:48:32.076 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC7T4 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 21:48:32.076 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC7 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 21:48:32.076 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC8T4 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 21:48:32.076 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC8 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 21:48:32.076 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC9T4 to list 0, parameter already exists.

 

It complains about duplicated parameter names but, I do not have any duplicated name.

 

I am using the following code to create the parameters.

 

#define rawWaveformString       "raw_wfC%dT%d"

#define iWaveformString         "i_wfC%dT%d"

#define qWaveformString         "q_wfC%dT%d"

#define phaseWaveformString     "p_wfC%dT%d"

#define amplitudeWaveformString "a_wfC%dT%d"

 

#define avgPhasePerChnString      "avg_phaseC%dT%d"

#define avgAmplitudePerChnString  "avg_amplitudeC%dT%d"

#define avgPowerPerChnString      "avg_powerC%dT%d"

#define refSubPhasePerChnString   "refsub_phaseC%dT%d"

 

#define tsUnaware_avgPhasePerChnString      "avg_phaseC%d"

#define tsUnaware_avgAmplitudePerChnString  "avg_amplitudeC%d"

#define tsUnaware_avgPowerPerChnString      "avg_powerC%d"

#define tsUnaware_refSubPhasePerChnString   "refsub_phaseC%d"

--------------------

 

    for(int i=0; i < MAX_CHANNEL_NUMBER; i++) {

        for(int j =0; ts[j] > 0; j++) {

            if( i < MAX_RAW_CHANNEL_NUMBER ) sprintf(param_name, rawWaveformString,       i, ts[j]); createParam(param_name, asynParamInt16Array,   &p_signalWaveform[i][j].raw);

            sprintf(param_name, iWaveformString,         i, ts[j]); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64Array, &p_signalWaveform[i][j].i);

            sprintf(param_name, qWaveformString,         i, ts[j]); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64Array, &p_signalWaveform[i][j].q);

            sprintf(param_name, phaseWaveformString,     i, ts[j]); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64Array, &p_signalWaveform[i][j].phase);

            sprintf(param_name, amplitudeWaveformString, i, ts[j]); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64Array, &p_signalWaveform[i][j].amplitude);

 

            sprintf(param_name, avgPhasePerChnString,     i, ts[j]); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64, &p_signalWaveform[i][j].avg_phase);

            sprintf(param_name, avgAmplitudePerChnString, i, ts[j]); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64, &p_signalWaveform[i][j].avg_amplitude);

            sprintf(param_name, avgPowerPerChnString,     i, ts[j]); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64, &p_signalWaveform[i][j].avg_power);

            sprintf(param_name, refSubPhasePerChnString,  i, ts[j]); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64, &p_signalWaveform[i][j].refsub_phase);

        }

 

        sprintf(param_name, tsUnaware_avgPhasePerChnString,     i); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64, &p_signalWaveform_tsUnaware[i].avg_phase);

        sprintf(param_name, tsUnaware_avgAmplitudePerChnString, i); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64, &p_signalWaveform_tsUnaware[i].avg_amplitude);

        sprintf(param_name, tsUnaware_avgPowerPerChnString,     i); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64, &p_signalWaveform_tsUnaware[i].avg_power);

        sprintf(param_name, tsUnaware_refSubPhasePerChnString,  i); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64, &p_signalWaveform_tsUnaware[i].refsub_phase);

    }

----------------

 

If I commented out one of line in the code, the error messages point out other parameters.

For example, if I commented out the following line.

 

//        sprintf(param_name, tsUnaware_refSubPhasePerChnString,  i); createParam(param_name, asynParamFloat64, &p_signalWaveform_tsUnaware[i].refsub_phase);

 

The error message changed as the followings:

 

2018/03/26 22:02:59.907 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter avg_powerC5 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 22:02:59.907 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC6T4 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 22:02:59.907 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC7T4 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 22:02:59.907 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter avg_powerC7 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 22:02:59.907 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC8T4 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 22:02:59.907 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter avg_powerC8 to list 0, parameter already exists.

2018/03/26 22:02:59.907 asynPortDriver:createParam: port=KlystronPort error adding parameter refsub_phaseC9T4 to list 0, parameter already exists.

 

The parameter avg_powerC5, C6, C7, and C8 were not in the previous error messages.

Would you give me your advice for this issue?

 

Thank you.
