Software Design
- Standard EPICS strategy for implementing complex control software :
- Database records with linked computational functions
- Sequencer (State Machine) program
- medm display(s)
- Control settings restoration on reboot
- TFTR Clock Page replicated using medm.
- IPCS used to propogate selected clock events to other computers. About 1 second accuracy.
- PreSequence and PrePulse Check computation and response to Abort sequences occur “outside” the clock software.
