[Dsg-halld_plc] Hall D target screens on epicsweb

[Tyler Lemon]

Hi Hovanes,

If the cryo-target screens are already in EDM, they should be able to be just loaded into WEDM.

For the script used to convert CSS to EDM, I left out the conversion of controls during development since controls are unusable in WEDM. Screens would have to be manually rearranged anyways because text sizes and text box behavior is different between CSS and EDM.

If you do put a control in, WEDM automatically disables it put in and doesn't allow the user to click it. For example, on the screen at the link below, the blue rectangle is a button control and when it is moused over, the cursor turns into a "NO" symbol and you can't use it.

https://epicsweb.jlab.org/wedm/screen?edl=/cs/opshome/edm/dsg/ctrl-test.edl<https://epicsweb.jlab.org/wedm/screen?edl=%2fcs%2fopshome%2fedm%2fdsg%2fctrl-test.edl>

If the cryo-target screens are loaded into WEDM and look fine, links would just need to be added to the menu.

Best regards,
Tyler

Hi Chris,

Tyler Lemon converted some of our CSS EPICS screens to EDM and made
arrangements
with the accelerator folks to post them for us on epicsweb as buttons.
You can check out
what it looks like here.

https://epicsweb.jlab.org/wmenu/#HallDDetectorComponents-page

We could have a button or a subpage for the Hall D cryo-target there
like there is
one for solenoid. Since you have the EDM screens, Tyler will not need to
convert screens,
he will just have them in a good arrangement on this page for read-only
access.

Tyler, would this be something simple to do? Chris can e-mail you the
adl-files he already
has for our cryo-target.

Best,
     Hovanes.
