PicoMotor control system using EPICS and Python

Installation

We assume that EPICS base is installed in /opt/epics/base.

Download EpicsCA version 2 (not 3 yet) from below:

Extract it in /opt/epics/.

Set appropriate environmental variables (these are actually set by .cshrc, so you shouldn't have to be bothered).

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/epics/base/lib/linux-x86_64
EPICS_BASE=/opt/epics/base
EPICS_EXTENSIONS=/opt/epics/extensions
EPICS_HOST_ARCH=linux-x86_64

Run

python setup.py build

You may need to install development files for python, if these are not installed yet.

Run

python setup.py install

as root. Be sure to source /home/controls/.cshrc to set the environmental variables.
