EPICenter Database Views
This appendix describes the most useful views in the EPICenter database for the purpose
of creating Tcl scripts for use in Reports or as Alarm actions.
The variables in these views can be accessed using the methods defined in the file
extr.tcl found in the <epicenter_install_dir>/user/reports/tcl directory, where
<epicenter_install_dir> is the directory where the EPICenter software resides. They
can also be used by external applications.
