About this Project¶
In our effort to provide world-class instrumentation for the Fermilab accelerator complex, the AD/Instrumentation department has produced dozens of VME modules. The software responsible for talking directly to these hardware module and for abstracting the hardware-specific details of that communication into a user-friendly API is commonly referred to as the driver. This project serves two goals:- To be a common repository for all AD/Instrumentation VME module drivers
- To provide a common API framework to build new drivers upon
