Communications

Serial settings (baud rate, parity) can be changed on the front panel of the device. Ensure the IOC matches the physical device. Device communicates using a straightforward ASCII protocol with carriage-return terminators (\r).

Channels

Each PR4000B unit can talk to two sensors independently. The controller can acquire a large amount of diagnostic data alongside the "primary" readings for each channel. This diagnostic data polls more slowly than the main readings, as they probably change less frequently.

IOC

The IOC is forked from a Diamond repository, however it has been heavily modified to fit ISIS standards and working practices. In reality it should be treated as "our own" driver rather than as a "vendor" driver.
