It would be much more convenient and reliable to do it remotely via a direct command throu the RS232 port sending the command individually or loading a configuration file. Peter Sinclaire did a succesful experiment in loading the parameters throu the RS232 port. The standard operation should allow opening of an engineering panel from the HARPS ICS from which load a configuration file or send a command. Action Log : 10/25/2005 2:49:17 PM gandreon Under study. 10/30/2005 3:45:47 PM jluhrs In HARPS, both PREMA are controlled by the module haiprt, running in the LCU lhaics2. This module implements a command (SEND) for sending any string directly to any of the two PREMA. In the command replay comes whatever PREMA had generated in response (that should be tested). Several ways for easing the configuration of PREMA are proposed: 1. Configuration can be done from the instrument workstation sending the proper SEND commands to haiprt. A shell script can be created with the commands to configure each PREMA, and another to check their configurations. The parameter values would be contained in the script, with enough comments to document them. Nevertheless, having configuration values in a script is not a desirable thing. 2. Similar to 1, but parameter values for both PREMA would be contained in the DB, and the configuration would be archived in a dbcfg file. A shell script or small application retrieves de values and generates the proper SEND commands for haiprt. Another script is used to check their configurations. A GUI application is desirable for editing the parameter values in the DB and generating the dbcfg file. 3. haiprt could be extended to have the responsibility of configuring both PREMA during the init stage. One option is to have a file with the commands to be sent for each PREMA (archived as part of the instrument configuration), and have haiprt just send the file content to the corresponding PREMA. The file should at least support comments to document every parameter. A GUI application for editing the values in the file would be a plus. Other option is to retrieve each PREMA configuration from the LCU DB, and generate the proper commands for each PREMA. In this way, haiprt has the chance to validate the parameter values. The configuration would be archived as a dbcfg file. A GUI application is desirable for editing the parameter values in the DB and generating the dbcfg file. This solution involves more work, but is also the more "VLT-like". 4. There are other devices that need to be configured through a serial port beyond PREMA, some connected to LCUs, and other connected to workstations. It would be convenient to have a generic application for interacting with such devices. It would consist in an agent running in the LCU, a WS application communicating with the LCU agent (or controlling directly the serial communication from the WS), and a GUI. From the GUI it should be possible to set the communication configuration (device connected to WS or LCU, which LCU environment, which port or device, etc). It should provide a command window to enter the commands to be sent, and another window for showing the responses. It should be possible to specify a file with the commands to be sent. That file should be included in the instrument configuration. 11/2/2005 8:28:12 AM gihle Yes dialer alarm because NO POWER either stabilized or not was tested OK.
