=Setting address=


The address pins on this module are not labeled so I adopted the convention of numbering them from left to right as I look from the front pannel.

=Initializing from ROC console=

The V260 library has an initialization function called v260Init to use for getting a pointer to its VME memory location.
The scaler uses A24 bit addressing so you need to add 2 zeros at the end.

 -> v260Init 0xda0000
 Initialized SCALER ID 0 at address 0x90da0000 
 value = 0 = 0x0

= Status function =
