The E-500 isn't in the list of supported controllers, but it still may

be supported by the motorPIGCS2 module:

  https://github.com/epics-motor/motorPIGCS2

The communication interface card might of the E-500 might report a

different version string in response to the "*IDN?" command, which is

what the motor driver queries:

and then uses to determine the controller type:

Dear EPICS mates,

Is there a EPICS support module for PI E-500 piezo controller?

I can't find it in Support Modules webpage

https://epics.anl.gov/modules/index.php

<https://epics.anl.gov/modules/index.php>

and in PI GitHub

https://github.com/epics-motor/motorPI

<https://github.com/epics-motor/motorPI>

Are there any other PI controller models similar to E-500?
 From which I can modify the source code of the support module.

Best regards.
