This page is the home of the EPICS ipac module, which provides a standard interface for Industry Pack carrier boards under vxWorks, and ensures that drivers for individual IP modules do not need to understand or control the carrier board they are installed in. Also included with this software are several IP module drivers that use the ipac carrier layer.
This web-site gives access to all unbundled versions of the ipac source code and its associated documentation.
The software is available for download from the links given in the table below:
