Added BPG402-SE to end X Beckhoff
Richard, Patrick

Richard attached a BPG402-SE Pirani/Cold Cathode combination gauge to the end X End Link Beckhoff chassis. I downloaded the device description file from the Inficon website (http://products.inficon.com/en-us/Product/Detail/BPG402-S?path=Products%2Fpg-wide-range-vacuum-gauges) and copied it into C:/TwinCAT/Io/EtherCAT/Inficon.xml on h1ecatx1.

I scanned for new devices in the system manager and added it after the ALS Laser Table Relay (EP2624-0002). I updated the CoE - Online parameters to set:

(800E:02) Low Trip Point Enable TP1: TRUE
(800E:14) Low Trip Point Limit TP1: 1E-5
(800F:02) Low Trip Point Enable TP2: TRUE
(800F:14) Low Trip Point Limit TP2: 1E-5
(F840:01) Data Units: 0x00A10000 (Set pressure reading to Torr)

I stored these to non-volatile memory by writing 0x65766173 to (1010:01) Store all parameters.

We tested the functionality by setting to the low trip point limit to 1E-7, verified that the high voltage tripped off, and put it back to 1E-5.

I committed the change in C:/SlowControls/Scripts/Configuration/H1ECATX1/SYS/H1ECatX1.tsm to svn. I then used Daniel's GUI to copy it to the target area, activate and run it. The high voltage tripped off when it was restarted (a good thing). At some point the EPICS IOC stopped and I had to restart it. I burtrestored PLC1, PLC2 and PLC3 to 6:10 this morning.
