Subject: areaDetector driver with array parameters
From: Phil Atkin <[email protected]>

Hi folks,

My areaDetector driver has a large number of parameters to control the camera, some of which are related entities.  The natural way to arrange this in a non-EPICS context would be to provide a parameter that was an array.

Is this possible in an areaDetector context, and if so is there an existing driver that uses this approach?  (I would need to understand how to code the driver, how to create the .template file, and how the values could be adjusted through medm and CSS-BOY).

It may be desirable to allow a variable number of elements in the array - but I'm not yet sure whether that will be necessary.

Thanks in advance,

Phil
