e2c-client

ALMA Ethernet-To-CAN socket server Python client package for LRU monitoring and control.

The e2c-client package provides an application and libraries for CAN-based monitoring and control of hardware devices through the Ethernet-To-CAN module.
See ALMA-70.35.10.14-00.00.00.00-A-ICD for the ICD between Computing/E2C Socket Server Protocol and ALMA operations.

Installation

pip install e2c-client

If installed for user only in an APEx virtual environment, it may be necessary to unset the user PYTHONPATH environment variable for the current session:

unset PYTHONPATH

Installation for development

git clone ssh://[e-mail]:7999/eng/e2c-client.git
