(c) 2005,2006 by Mondrian Nuessle et al.
Overview
--------
This projects adds support for the GEMBIRD SIS-PM device to linux.
Follow the instructions in INSTALL to install the application
(generic configure && make && make install).
Call sispmctl (formerly: sispm_ctl) without commandline parameters,
it will print the available options to stdout.
Installation
------------
See the file INSTALLATION for generic installation instructions.
The following confiure options may be of interest:
--prefix=dif Set installation directory-prefix (default is /usr/local)
--enable-webless Disable the builtin webserver. It will not be compiled into
the binary. The commandline options for the web-interface will
not be available.
--with-webdir=directory Install the web-interface file to subdirectories of the
given directory. A doc linl in this directory will point
to skin1. And the path will be default path compiled into
the binary.
The default without this option is /usr/local/httpd/sispmctl.
--with-bindaddr=ipaddress Give the IP address (in dotted decimal form, i.e. 127.0.0.1) for
the default interface that the webserver accepts connections on.
The default without this option is to use all available interfaces.
--with-default-port=portnumber Give the default port number the webserver is listening on.
If you do not specify this option the default is 2638
Dependencies
------------
- libusb 0.18 must be installed, libusb-config in $PATH
Web-Interface
------------
The web interface may be started manually (i.e. sispmctl -l)
or using the inittab. Add the following line to your /etc/inittab:
pm:2345:respawn:/usr/local/bin/sispmctl -l
There are three kind of skins between you might select:
src/web1/ classic sispm_http style
src/web2/ an extended google start page
src/web3/ a vertical sized frame
The skins are installed under
$(PREFIX)/httpd/sispmctl/skin1..3
The default skin is selected by the symbolic link
$(PREFIX)/httpd/sispmctl/doc which point to skin1 after
installation. You can easily select a different skin by
chaning this symbolic link.
It is quite easy to change one or write a new one. Try it.
