This project implements an HCD (Hardware Control Daemon) that talks to a Galil controller using the TMT Common Software (CSW) APIs. An example device might be the DMC-50040(DIN, ISCNTL)-C023-I000-D4020.
- galil-assembly - an assembly that talks to the Galil HCD
- galil-client - client applications that talk to the Galil assembly or HCD
- galil-hcd - an HCD that talks to the Galil hardware
- galil-io - library implementing the communication with the Galil hardware
- galil-repl - a command line client for a Galil device where you can enter Galil commands and see the responses
- galil-simulator - implements a simulator for a Galil device (Only a small subset of Galil commands are simulated)
The build is based on sbt and depends on libraries generated from the csw project.
See here for instructions on installing sbt.
Note: The version of CSW used by this project is declared in project/build.properties.
Run:
sbt stage
to compile everything and create the start scripts for the components. After this command, you can find the start scripts in ./target/universal/stage/bin.
The CSW services need to be running before starting the components. (They are started automatically for the tests.) See here for how to install csw-services using coursier (cs).
- Run
csw-services start -ecommand to start the CSW services: i.e. Location, Event Service.
See csw-services for more information.
To run the Galil HCD using an actual Galil device, run the galil-hcd command with the options:
galil-hcd --local galil-hcd/src/main/resources/GalilHcd.conf -Dgalil.host=myhost -Dgalil.port=23
An example GalilHcd.conf file can be found here.
If --local is not given, the file would be fetched from the Config Service, if available.
To run using a Galil simulator, run these commands in separate terminal windows:
galil-simulator
galil-hcd --local galil-hcd/src/main/resources/GalilHcd.conf
