User manual

• adapter_dll – is the name of DLL library from where the DRV11-WA device emulation is

loaded. If this parameter is omitted, chapi_hw.DLL is used as default;

• adapter_name – the name of DRV-11WA replacement adapter connection module to

load from the specified DLL library. If this parameter is omitted, 'dci1100' will be used as

default;

• adapter_instance – This is the instance number of the DRV11-WA replacement

adapter to use, in case a number of the specified replacement adapters are installed on

the PCI bus. If this parameter is omitted, 0 (i.e. The first instance) is used as default.

• adapter_options – any optional device parameters to be passed to the DRV11-WA

replacement adapter connection module. No options are defined for dci1100 adapter

implemented in the chapi_hw DLL library. If this parameter is omitted, an empty string is

default;

HTIME

The CHAPI HTIME QBUS/UNIBUS device is a custom CHAPI implementation to obtain

the host system date and time. It is implemented in the CHAPI_HTIME.DLL and uses the

CHAPI.DLL. The device is provided in binary form; it is essentially designed to copy the

host system time to the RSX11 system time, in combination with the RSX-11 HTIM task.

Details are provided in (FIXME: add reference here).

The CHAPI HTIME device has no options and is configured as follows:

load chapi host_time dll=chapi_htime trace_level=<trace_level>

IAV1S-AA, IAV1S-C / IAV1S-CA

The CHAPI IAV1S-AA QBUS devices are implemented with CHAPI_IAV1S_AA.DLL and

use CHAPI_INDIO.DLL and CHAPI.DLL for its implementation. The DLL is available in

binary only. This implementation can map its ADC lines to SENSORAY 2601, 2608

ADC/DAC Ethernet boards.

This device cannot be configured using the legacy ‘parameter’ configuration method.

The configuration options are as follows:

load chapi ADC dll=chapi_iav1s_aa.dll address=<> vector=<>

set ADC trace_level=<trace_level>

set ADC port_dll=”<port_dll>”

set ADC port_cfg=”<port_cfg>”

set ADC port_param[x]="<IP address>"

set ADC port_offset[x]=<adc_offset>

set ADC bipolar=<bipolar>
