Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

I’m trying to use Matt Pearson’s Lakeshore 336/360 IOC to interface a Lakeshore 336 temperature controller. The IOC seems to be running properly: I can read and write setpoints and PID parameters. But I’m having trouble figuring out how to read the temperature for the four sensors. It looks like

                caget KRDG0 (1,2,3)

should work, but this returns zero for all four indices. I think that the IOC has provisions (which I haven’t been able to follow) for assigning different sensors to different channels; do I need to do some assignments before I can read temperatures?

 

I’m grateful for all the work which has gone into this IOC, and I would appreciate any help I can get in using it!
