Documentation:
The RS232 serial interface allows remote reading and programming the Pressure Indicator. The parameters of the serial line are: - 8 bits - no parity - 1 stop bit - 9600 bauds SETUP The serial line cable is connected to the serial line interface card COMU 2000 (COMU 30), known as IBAM. A "device server" called SerialLine should be running in the VME crate, where the IBAM is. The configuration of the "server" can be found in a the resource file xxxSerilaLine.res, where xxx is the name of the crate (i.e. d291, id011 ...) | ||||||
Macros:
Usage: wika_setup <serial line number (i.e. 0) counter_mnemonic> Establishes the communication with the Indicator. The input parameter is the ordinal number of the serial line device (starting from 0), as assigned in the config file. The counter_mnemonic is needed for the reading during a count. wika_on Usage: wika_on Configure the reading of the pessure into the counters reading. wika_off Usage: wika_off removes all the macros and definitions for the WIKA Pressure Indicator wika_read Usage: wika_read Reads the pressure [bars] wika_read_min Usage: wika_read_min Reads the minimum pressure [bars] wika_read_max Usage: wika_read_max Reads the maximum pressure [bars] wika_set_limit_down Usage: wika_set_limit_down [setpoint offset] puts pressure limits [bars] when the setpoint is lower than the current pressure 1E.........1A.........SP.........2A.........2E |<-offset->|<-offset->|<-offset->|<-offset->| wika_set_limit_up Usage: wika_set_limit_up [setpoint offset] puts pressure limits [bars] when the setpoint is higher than the current pressure 1E.........1A.........SP.........2A.........2E |<-offset->|<-offset->|<-offset->|<-offset->| | ||||||
| Internal Macros: | ||||||
Usage: _wika_read () Generic read information from the controller. Return the value or -10000 if read error _wika_check_limits Usage: _wika_check_limits (val1,val2) Checks the set limit macros input values. _check_sl Usage: _check_sl () Check if the serial line is configured (return 0) or not (return -1). _format_string Usage: _format_string (val) Format a string. | ||||||
