RE: Using AD plugins on asyn port

[Abdalla Ahmad via Tech-talk <tech-talk@aps.anl.gov>]

Thanks Matt, it is exactly what I need, but it is still unclear how it interfaces with my existing waveform record, i.e. How to pass data from my waveform record to $(P)$(R)ArrayIn. My waveform record already has its INP field set to read input from a compress record doing circular buffer at 200 Hz from the hardware.

Hi Abdalla,

 

This might be what you need:

https://areadetector.github.io/areaDetector/NDDriverStdArrays/NDDriverStdArraysDoc.html

 

It monitors a waveform record and can turn it into an NDArray, which can then be processed by other areaDetector plugins as needed. It doesn’t connect to the Asyn port that is producing the waveform data directly, but instead sets up a channel access monitor.

 

Cheers,

Matt

Hi Is there a way to apply AD plugins on a waveform record processed from asyn port without rewriting an asynNDArrayDriver class? i. e. , something to be done in the st. cmd maybe? Best Regards, Abdalla Al-Dalleh Control Engineer SESAME ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍
