Hi EPICS users, Is anyone aware of work on drivers for Applied Motion Products? In particular, I’m looking at the “SSM23IP-3EG NEMA 23 Integrated StepSERVO Motor w/ EtherNet/IP”: If nobody has been working on a driver, I believe the correct approach for me would be to mimic the motor drivers at
https://github.com/epics-motor. However, another temptation would be to use the StreamDevice toolkit as a faster pathway to the goal line. Can anyone speak to the pros and cons of a “StreamDevice” approach, versus
writing a C++-code-level driver for a motor? Thanks! Scott |
