Module Setup Sequence
- Hook module up to communication board.
- Create database entries for Positioners:
- Module number represents physical location (1,2,3.. 42)
- Board number is for addressing in code (1,2,3.... 84) and can be changed if one module fails.
- Create XML. -> Johannes TODO: write XML generator: include: motormap data from newscale, estimated locations, frequencies from Newscale, ontimes from Newscale
- Set frequencies -> FPGA forgets all frequencies, so MPS has to send them to FPGA after reboot of the system.
- Frequencies can be stored in MPS database but HK does not overwrite them! So to set existing frequencies, currently the only command is cmd_addSetFreqCommand_ToFoga.
- MPS command cmd_sendMotorFrequencies gets executed on startup and sets FPGA frequencies from MPS database.
