Dear Sebastian,

sorry for the late reply.

I'd be willing to help with adding support for further Picotech models to IOC I've written some time ago (mentioned by Spencer Gessner already: https://git.gsi.de/r3b_public/epics/pico_2000).
Judging from the API manual of the Picoscope SDK, the API for the 5000 series looks also very similar to the 2000 series.

Also, if you need help with implementing support for the model you want to use in another device support / IOC, please let me know.

Best regards

Bastian

Betreff: Re: Integrating picoscopes into the EPICS control system

Hi Sebastian,

The EPICS code for the Pico 2000 series is here:

https://git.gsi.de/r3b_public/epics/pico_2000

It is written by Bastian Loeher from GSI (cc’ed).

Cheers
Spencer

Dear PicoTech, Dear Mark Rivers (tech-talk), Dear Hinko,

we are currently setting up an experiment at SLAC. We would like to use picoscopes for data acquisition. This, however, requires us to integrate picoscopes into the EPICS system (https://epics.anl.gov/index.php). Could you help us understand which picoscopes are readily integrated into EPICS?

Any information you can provide is highly appreciated.

With best wishes,
Sebastian
