README
b'Author: zreszela@cells.es\n\nHere you will find information how to compile and use PmacEth device server:\n\nPmacEth device server supports only linux platform, \nand is compatible with Pmac2 and Turbo Pmac2 motion controllers\nIt requires tango libraries (and includes - for compilation). \n\n1. Compilation of communication library\n\tIn comm_lib directory execute make command.\n\n2. Compilation of device server.\n\tMakefile uses SICILIA environment variable as a root place of tango system. \n\tSICILIA name comes from internal ALBA development configuration, \n\tand will be change soon to TANGO_HOME. For the moment please treat it as TANGO_HOME \n\tand forgive me that:)\n\tTANGO_HOME(SICILIA) environment variable points to tango system home.\n\tIt requires at least following directory structure:\n\n\tTANGO_HOME \n\t|---include (subdirectory with tango, omniORB include files)\n\t|---lib (subdirectory with tango, omniORG shared libraries)\n\n3. Configuration of PmacEth device server in Tango Database.\n\tIn database create device server PmacEth instance, with one device of class PmacEth.\n\tAdd device property IP_address with value corresponding to ip of the controller.\n\n4. Start your server. \n\n5. Device will be OFF state until you call OpenCommunication command. \n\tAfter that, you can enjoy work with PmacEth device server:)\n\n \n\n\n \n\n \n '
