Hi Mark,

  Yes, I believe that’s the intent.  But, I’m new to camera support.  The request to me was to get the XML file and run it through ADGenICam/scripts/makeDb.py to make the .template file.  We already have the camera-link support in use with other cameras under EPICS, so I will need to learn how to connect the two.
