CAMACController sspec supports only one CAMAC controller at a time. The following CAMAC cratecontrollers are available:config filePC_DSP6001GP_CC488CDEVCA_JOR73ACA_KS3929_HPCA_KS3929GP_KS3988PC_KSC2926CA_KSCDescriptionDSP 6001 with PC004 (no driver)DSP CC-488 GPIB Crate ControllerDSP-6001/DCC-11/KS-3912 BoardsJorway 73A SCSI to CAMACKS 3929 SCSI to CAMAC on HPKS 3929 SCSI to CAMAC on SunKS 3988 GPIB Crate ControllerKSC 2926 with 3922 (no driver)Kinetic Systems CAMAC driverTo select one, move the cursor to the NO box under CAMAC and type y and .Then move the cursor to the rightmost column and type < or > until the appropriatecontroller appears and then enter .

The appropriate CSS driver mustbe installed in each case. The PC platform controllers may be used in a polled orinterrupt-driven mode. In interrupt-driven mode, a CAMAC look-at-me (LAM) willgenerate a call to a spec interrupt service routine.To use the DSP 6001/6002 controllers in interrupt-driven mode, the boards must bemodified to give the module a software programmable interrupt-enable capability.The modifications involve cutting four traces and soldering four jumper wires on oneof the boards in the 6001/2 module. Contact CSS to obtain the explicit instructions.No modifications are required to operate the controller in polled mode.216 HARDWARE REFERENCE INTERIM WORK-IN-PROGRESS (8/16/01) NOT FOR GENERAL DISTRIBUTION
