FASTBUS STANDARD ROUTINES IMPLEMENTATION FOR FERMILAB EMBEDDED PROCESSOR BOARDS

In collaboration with CEBAF, Fermilab has produced a new C implementat ion of the IEEE FASTBUS Standard Routines[1]1. This implementation run s under the VxWorks2 operating system and has been ported to the PC-4 revision of the FASTBUS Smart Crate Controller (FSCC)[2] and the FASTB US Readout Controller (FRC)[3]. Both of these boards are used in fixed target and collider HEP experiments. Features of this implementation include: optional generation of high-speed in-line code, built-in RPC (remote producedure call) support, and a TCL(tool command language) [4 ]command line interpreter interface. We describe this software with re cent extensions to support RPC.
