ZMX

Tango Server for the Stepper Motor Power Stage model ZMX from Phytron. The Server uses the classes ZMX and Socket. Host name and port number of the Power Stage system are given as properties (HostName and Port) of the Socket tango device that is started in the same process as the zmx devices. An optimal value for the Socket Timeout property is 300. The ZMX devices make the connection with this socket device by a property SocketDevice.

Note: Changes of the ZMX attributes are made persistent by executing the command WriteEPROM. The command is automatically executed, if FlagSaveAutomatically is set to true.

The Socket class is based on the one from Soleil (in Tango-ds cvs) but with a modification for avoiding a Segmentation Fault in the ZMX device when the socket is not responding. The library libtgclasses in Tango-ds svn contains the modified Socket class.
