Yes, 512 kBytes is rather small. For the T2K prototype TPC DAQ, I built and ran

[quote="K.O."]Now, we have per-buffer tunable size (see message
https://ladd00.triumf.ca/elog/Midas/283) and in the long run, I would prefer the
compiled-in limit to go away: already all memory is allocated dynamically and

23 Oct 2008, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Report, Inconsistent handling of odb and evet buffer timeouts
|
In midas.c there are several places where client last activity time stamps are checked against the
watchdog timeout and the clients are declared dead if they fail to update their activity time stamps.
ODB time stamps and data buffer time stamps appear to be handled in a similar manner.

Hi, I would like to restructure our sequencer scripts and the paths. Until now many things are not generic at all. I would like to ask if it is possible
to include files through a relative path for example something like
INCLUDE ../chip/global_basic_functions

We're using the sequencer to manage runs, and this typically looks something like:
1. save ODB keys to variables via ODBGET

I guess you use a wrong pattern here. There is no need to copy ODB values to local variables,
then change them, then write them back. You can rather directly write values to the ODB. We run
all our experiments in that way and we can do what we want. So most of our scripts have sections

While the odbxx API has been successfully used since the last months, a potential
problem with large ODBs surfaced. If you have lots of data in the ODB and load it
into an object like

After some thought, I changed the API again and removed the flag in the constructor,
so the system now automatically choses the best algorithm depending if the client
is connected to a local or a remote API. So in all cases you use again the old syntax:

Some improvement of custom pages have been implemented. The idea behind is that
a custom page would contain a large background image containing indicators but
also controls. While indicators (values, bars) are already available, the field

Even more improvements have been implemented into custom pages recently, containing a complete JavaScript library for ODB communication. This JavaScript
library relies on certain new commands built into mhttpd, and is therefore hardcoded into mhttpd. It can be seen by entering
