Adding the hardware Mxc reset function for each input #170

Closed hongran closed 6 days ago

hongran commented 2 weeks ago

This feature allows people to use an external signal to reset the multplexed counters. This feature is only functional with firmware version 207.11. The earlier FW had a bug.

Is there a way to rerun this check? Such errors may just be temporary. I don't see errors in my branch. Error: retrieving gpg key timed out. Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

hongran commented 2 weeks ago

refreshed the commit to trigger the auto check. No errors this time.

@hongran , I did a test with InpFront0EnaMxcr-SP Enabled/Disabled and InpUniv0EnaMxcr-RB is always Disabled. Why it does not change?

I understand that once it is enabled, the trigger onto InpFront0 resets all MXC counters so <0..7> ?

What is your firmware version? This feature is only functional with firmware version 207.11. The earlier FW had a bug. Jukka fixed it in the VME firmware. I am not sure if he updated the one for mtca.

@jerzyjamroz I just changed the -SP to -Sel for that record. I force-pushed a commit so your push was overwritten. Could you make a new PR for that?

jerzyjamroz commented 6 days ago

@hongran , I cannot verify this as MTCA EVM does not support it yet. I will merge it anyway as I do not see any other issue, and I do not want to block you. I will recheck it once our hardware supports that.
