  1. Lab #2IOC Database

  2. Lab #2 Outline • Look at the example database used for Lab #1 • Learn how to use the vdct database editor • Create some new records and functionality • Run the IOC and load the new records • Use cau, probe or edm to test the new functionality • Repeat steps 3-5 until it works

  3. Examine yesterday’s database • Use the linux more command (or your favorite text editor) to look at the file ~/example/db/dbExample1.db • Work out how the $(user):calcExample record field values configure the record to generate the sawtooth pattern we saw yesterday • Look at the file ~/example/dbd/example.dbd • Start the IOC by typing cd ~/example/iocBoot/iocexample ../../bin/linux-x86/example st.cmd • Look at the commands it executed from the st.cmd file, and what messages were reported • Type help at the epics prompt for a list of commands

  4. Example1.db record(ai, "$(user):aiExample") { field(DESC, "Analog input") field(INP, "$(user):calcExample.VAL NPP NMS") field(EGUF, "10") field(EGU, "Counts") field(HOPR, "10") field(LOPR, "0") field(HIHI, "8") field(HIGH, "6") field(LOW, "4") field(LOLO, "2") field(HHSV, "MAJOR") field(HSV, "MINOR") field(LSV, "MINOR") field(LLSV, "MAJOR") }

  5. Example1.db (cont’d) record(calc, "$(user):calcExample") { field(DESC, "Counter") field(SCAN,"1 second") field(FLNK, "$(user):aiExample") field(CALC, "(A<B)?(A+C):D") field(INPA, "$(user):calcExample.VAL NPP NMS") field(INPB, "9") field(INPC, "1") field(INPD, "0") field(EGU, "Counts") field(HOPR, "10") field(HIHI, "8") field(HIGH, "6") field(LOW, "4") field(LOLO, "2") field(HHSV, "MAJOR") field(HSV, "MINOR") field(LSV, "MINOR") field(LLSV, "MAJOR") }

  6. How to edit databases in vdct • You can either create a new database file for your PVs or add them to the file ~/example/db/dbExample1.db • To start vdct: cd ~/examplevdct & • Select a database definition file: In the dialog box, select and open dbd/example.dbd • To modify the existing db/dbExample1.db file: Use the File/Open menu item, or the left-most toolbar button • Edit away (see Help Topics menu item or vdct manual for keys) • Save the edited (or new) database ... From file menu, pick Save or Save as ../db/_.db • If you created a new database, edit ~/example/iocBoot/iocexample/st.cmd and add a line to load your new database.

  7. Suggested Database Changes • バイナリ入力レコードを追加し、caclExampleレコードのカウント動作を停止・継続を制御する。 • How many other ways can you devise of controlling whether calcExample cycles or not? • Adding new records is allowed and even encouraged • Add another binary input record, and some logic to only permit oscillation when both records are “On” • Extend this so that the sawtooth only stops after the permit has been withdrawn once its value reaches zero • Replace the sawtooth generator with one that is smoother (i.e. doesn't just go up in integer steps)

  8. Implement Channel Access Security in your IOC so that only studnt_ can modify studnt_:calcExample. • Create an access security configuration file named rules.cas in ~/ioc/iocBoot/iocexample Additional Database Exercises • Add the following line to ~/ioc/iocBoot/iocexample/st.cmd asSetFilename("rules.cas") • Changestudnt_:calcExample.ASG to SUPERUSER. • Add other security conditions as desired. UAG(users) {studnt_} ASG(DEFAULT) { RULE(1, READ) RULE(1, WRITE) } ASG(SUPERUSER) { RULE(1, READ) RULE(1, WRITE) { UAG(users) } }
