fastcs-eiger 0.4.0

Eiger control system integration with FastCS

FastCS Eiger

Control system integration for Dectris Eiger detectors using FastCS.

Quickstart

1. Run eiger-detector development environment with data writers and simulated detector

   i. podman run --rm -it -v /dev/shm:/dev/shm -v /tmp:/tmp --net=host ghcr.io/dls-controls/eiger-detector-runtime:latest

   ii. It may be necessary to add the flag --security-opt label=disable if there are SELinux permissions restrictions.

2. Run the IOC against the simulated detector, either from a local checkout

   i. fastcs-eiger ioc `hostname -s`-EIGER

   ii. or run the Eiger IOC vscode launch config, but edit it to include your hostname or there could be PV clashes from duplicate IOCs on the same network.

3. or to run the latest release directly from the container registry

   i. Make a local directory for UIs mkdir /tmp/opi - bob files will appear here that can be opened on the host with Phoebus.

   ii. podman run --rm -it -v /tmp/opi:/epics/opi --net=host ghcr.io/DiamondLightSource/fastcs-eiger:latest
