Name

MBSseqTaskSIM - NEC Sequence Controller simulator

Description

Simulator for I/O service to an NEC Sequence Controller CAMAC module.

This module is used in a software development and test environment to simulate the messages provided by MBSseqTask to other jobs in the system. This allows software testing in an environment where the hardware is not availible.

This program runs as daemon unless overriden with the --no_daemon argument and should NOT be started in the background.

Arguments

Argument processing is done using Unix long argument syntax.

The values of all of the parameters listed here (whether or not they were supplied on the command line) are printed on stderr when the program starts.

--dbman_host <hn>: The host where dbman is running.
If this argument is not supplied the default is "localhost".
--drv <name>: The driver key.
--cmin: The minimum crate number in CAMAC.
The minimum board number in KBUSS.
If this is not supplied it defaults to 0.
--cmax: The maximum crate number in CAMAC.
The maximum board number in KBUSS.
If this is not supplied it defaults to 99.
--no_daemon: If this argument is present the program doesn’t become a daemon.
--show_tbl: If this is supplied then the DATA table is printed to stderr.
--help: Print the internal help information and exit.
