Kay,

I've downloaded the "Basic EPICS" version of CSS. I don't see "probe"

under Diagnostic Tools. I do see "EPICS PV Tree" which provides most

the information Probe does. Is this all I should see. EPICS PV Tree

does work.

Nothing appears to happen when I select Date Browser from the Trends

menu. I get no new window, no pop-up, nothing. Is there a

configuration step I might have missed? Is there a log file to look at

to see what the problem might be?

Thanks!

Brian

Hi:

At the Vancouver EPICS meeting it became apparent that several people are
interested in trying Control System Studio (CSS), but it's unclear where
to start.
Those who download CSS from DESY find a product with login dialog for
DESY; the SNS version asks you to select a "Workspace", has no
Synoptic Display but instead stuff which only works at the SNS.

A recent effort of SNS, Cosylab and DESY made it easier to create your own,
site-specific CSS product. Based on that, the SNS CSS web page now offers
a "Basic EPICS" version of CSS with (hopefully) no DESY or SNS specifics:

http://ics-web.sns.ornl.gov/css/products.html

The updated web page should also make it easier to see how
a Basic EPICS product differs from the SNS or DESY setup.

Thanks,
