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.

Address
Pin Setting
SW 1 D
SW 2 A
SW 3 0
SW 4 0

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

-> v260Status(0,1)                                                              
STATUS for SCALER id 0 at base address 0x90da0000
