Purpose

The purpose of the mhttpd equipment pages is to allow the user to view any Variables related to an equipment.

Access the equipment page

The main Status Page contains a list of all the equipment in an experiment (with each equipment being defined by a frontend). The name of each equipment on that page is a link to the relevant equipment page.

Configuring the equipment page

There are several ODB keys that can be defined in /Equipment/<equip_name>/ that affect the behaviour of this webpage. See the Equipment ODB tree documentation for full details, but in brief:

  • "/Equipment/<equip_name>/Variables/" contains the Variables to show on this page (and to record in the history system).
  • "/Equipment/<equip_name>/Settings/Names" or "/Equipment/<equip_name>/Settings/Names <variable>" contains the name of each element in the Variables arrays (e.g. channel names if recording the current of multiple channels).
  • "/Equipment/<equip_name>/Settings/Unit <variable>" contains the units in which a variable is measured.
  • "/Equipment/<equip_name>/Settings/Editable" contains a comma-separated list of variables that can be edited on the Equipment page.
  • "/Equipment/<equip_name>/Settings/Grid display" is a boolean which allows you to switch between linear display and "grid" display. In grid display, one channel is shown per row with several attributes (like current, voltage, ... for HV channels).

All the settings are optional, and must be created by the user if desired.
