Documentation:
Very simple macro set to get the reading of a penning gauge as a counter in spec This macro set oversedes the macro set balzer.mac Two options to configure them: 1/ as macro counter * create a macro counter controller. * set the number of channels to what you need * set the prefix as "gauge" * add counters in the scaler window with controller MAC_CNT * set unit as appropiate * in the additional parameter window (type "p" when you are over the counter line) add a parameter called device with the right value 2/ as old style pseudo counter * define counters in the scaler window with controller as NONE * add lines like "gaugeadd mne devname" in setup | ||||||
Macros:
Usage: gaugeadd ctmne devname Setup counter ctmne to accept pressure reading from device devname The counter needs to be defined in config If the line is configure in setup file, just taking the line away or commenting it out will deactivate the counter gaugeon Usage: gaugeon Activates reading on all gauges defined in setup with gaugeadd gaugeoff Usage: gaugeoff Deactivates reading on all gauges defined in setup with gaugeadd | ||||||
| Internal Macros: | ||||||
Usage: gauge_getcounts gauge_unsetup Usage: gauge_unsetup gauge_config Usage: gauge_config( mne, type, unit, mod, chan) Checks that a device name has been set for each counter after reconfig Otherwise sets the counter as unusable gauge_cmd Usage: gauge_cmd( mne, key, p1, p2, unit ) Read pressure value | ||||||
