Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Hi Mark,

We are unsure whether the SmarAct epics motor record will work in our
case because we are using the SmarPod hexapod. We are unsure how the
MCS2 exposes each of the pseudo axes and whether we might break
something by driving one motor and not the others if the individual axes
were exposed instead.

We wondered if anybody else had experience driving a SmarPod with an
MCS2 with the EPICS motor record.

Thanks

Bahareh

Where to find ASCII commands for the SmarPod or the MSC2 of it which the USB is connected to?

EPICS support for the SmarAct MCS and MCS2 controllers is here:

Subject: SmarPod with EPICS

Hello,

Is there anybody that had experience connecting to a SmarPod with EPICS?

Where to find ASCII commands for the SmarPod or the MSC2 of it which the
USB is connected to?

Best Regards,

Bahareh Shidrang
