CAEN VME crate with controller card plus digitizers

[Josh Fiddler via Tech-talk <tech-talk@aps.anl.gov>]

Greetings everyone, 

My current task involves implementing support for reading waveforms from a CAEN V1740 Digitizer card installed in a CAEN 8008B VME crate with the V1718 USB2 Bridge. They provide libraries for grabbing data with a CL application, but I want to ask if anyone has experience with this family of devices from CAEN.

I've looked at soft support and the VMErecord jumped out but in hardware support there isn't a module that my current knowledge makes as an obvious choice for this set up.

High-level description

The digitizers are taking samples from single-ended inputs when triggered. The USB bridge is the link between the instrument and the IOC host and then onto a channel archiver taking the data to storage and made available to clients for analysis.

Thanks 

Josh
