Detailed Description

IFW Filter Wheel Parameter Table.

Contains the basic parameters of one or more Optec filter wheels, as follows:

• Port Name of the IFW's comm port. Can be either a direct port name (e.g., "/dev/ttyS0") or a socket port on a network terminal server (e.g., "172.16.1.56:8004").

• FD File descriptor of the open comm port

• timeout Communications timeout interval in seconds. Read waits on the comm port will timeout if no reply is received within this time interval. Must be greater than the reader's internal no-decode timeout interval.

• Name Parameter name bound to the filter wheel datum. For example, if Name="Filter", the app will return "Filter=#" when reporting the filter wheel position.

• Debug Set 1 if you want super-verbose debug chatter, otherwise set to 0 if you want no debug chatter on the app console.
