Hi John, We just received our first XPS-D8 models last week. The advertised claim that they are completely hardware and software compatible with the XPS-Q8 is not true. These are
the differences we have found so far: -
The D8 does not support FTP to fetch/load configuration files or trajectory definition files. It supports SFTP. This means that the trajectory/profile move code
in the driver will need to be changed. -
The I/O connector that has the pulse outputs for trajectory scans has changed. The C8 and Q8 have a DB-25 connector. The D8 has a DB-50 connector and different
pins. The basic motor record support appears to work OK in our initial testing. Mark From: [email protected] <[email protected]>
On Behalf Of John Dobbins Is the motor record known to work with the latest version of the Newport XPS hardware, XPS-D8? Thanks, John Dobbins Research Support Specialist Cornell Laboratory for Accelerator Sciences and Education Cornell University |
