INTRODUCTION

This is the EPICS support module for the FMB (ENZ) LoCuM-4 low current monitor.

The conroller utilises a RS232 interface for serial communications.

The specification is based on FMB document: http://www.beamline.net/ http://www.enz-de.de/beamline/pr-locurr.html "4-Channel Low-Current Monitor LoCuM-4" V1.1

USAGE

One template is provided here:

  1. enzLoCuM4.template This instatiates all the records associated with the unit's control via the serial interface

  2. enzLoCuM4Readback.template This defines the records required to read the four analogue signals output from the controller, each associated with the four blades within the XBPM module. It's within the LoCuM4 support module as a supplementary template to perform appropriate data reduction on the blade signals in order to derive beam position.

The user interface is presently available via EDM screens. enzLoCuM4.edl - Configuration and status monitoring of the controller enzLoCuM4Readback.edl - Displays the four blade analogue signals and derived beam position.
