Subject: New dxpSITORO module available

Folks,

I have created a new EPICS module called dxpSITORO.   

dxpSITORO provides support for the SITORO based digital signal processor based multichannel analyzers from X-ray Instrumentation Associates (XIA). These devices include the FalconXN models, and all contain the functional equivalent of the shaping amplifier, ADC, and MCA of a conventional pulse-height analysis system. The FalconX is based on the SITORO technology from Southern Innovation.  It supports the 1, 4, and 8 channel versions of the FalconX.

dxpSITORO currently supports this hardware under the following operating systems and compilers:
- Linux with gcc.
- Windows with Visual Studio 2015 or later.

Two releases are now available:

Release 1-1 (16-July-2017)
- This is built with Handel 1.1.19 which is required for the new FalconX firmware.
- Added suppport for SCATriggerMode and SCAPulseDuration.
- Added suppport for RisetimeOptimization.
- Fixed IgnoreGate and InputLogicPolarity so they are set for normal MCA mode, not just mapping modes.
- Fixes to Makefiles to allow building dynamically on Windows.
- Renamed some files to avoid conflicts with the dxp module:
  - dxpSupport.dbd to dxpSITOROSupport.dbd
  - Library dxp to dxpSITORO
  - Library handel to handelSITORO

Release 1-0 (17-April-2017)
- Initial release. Supports mca spectrum and mca mapping modes on the FalconX modules. This is built with Handel 1.1.14
