Introduction
These pages contain information on the use of VME in CMS.
In particular they server the following purposes:
-
Maintain CMS wide design rules for VME interface designers.
These make it possible to create a homogenous software
environment to access VME modules in the CMS experiment.
-
Maintain information on the PCI-to-VME bridges used in
CMS. This includes development status information,
lists of bugs or shortcomings in either sofware or hardware
components, and some performance measurements.
-
The pages contain a set of drivers for the PCI-to-VME
bridges supported by the CMS online group. The drivers
are tested or if necessary modified so that they fit
into the CMS online environment. They are compatible with
the CMS Hardware Access Library
(HAL)
and are contained in the CMS online software.
