It only works as fanout if records are passive scanned.

hybrid.sub is created to add hybrid numbers to file, avoiding having to define that in st.cmd file. Similar thing is done for VMM chips, since it's always going to be 2 per hybrid. Add global configuration values. Global PVs should configure all parameters for all VMM FENS. Channel global configurations need to connect to asyn port in order to correctly initialize the array record :(

It was supposed to stay in the default 1 value.

After talking more with the firmware developers, it became clear that we can actually read from the registers when VMM is acquiring, we can only not Set other parameters. I still leave this as a commit instead of rebasing/amending to make it easily reversible if we need it someday.

Now most pertinent RBV records are not processed when acquisition is ongoing. A few records like LinkStatus and IsAcquiring are still scanned for obvious reasons, but if we find out that this could not be the case, we change it. I still think this should also be treated in the API layer. ADCVal and AnalogMon should process in the correct order for us to know what we are reading. We use PHAS field to make sure everything is processed after we have checked that IsAcquiring is 0.

Scannig was not added until now because RMMAPI had an issue that made it scramble answers from the hardware if too much polling was made. This issue was fixed so we add scan now. In the channels array records, this called for a new record creation. This is because we need the asyn:READBACK info tag, which makes the readback from hardware and the setpoint record have the same values. So I guarantee that the record ending with R is the actual scanned parameter. I also removed the forward link from S to RB record to guarantee that the latest value we have in $(CH)-S record is still the setpoint. AnalogMon and ADCVal-R have PHAS 0 and 1 respectively to guarantee that we know what is the meaning of what we are reading.

In order for VMM channel records to be able to see "#CalcDISA" record, they need to know the prefix for Hybrid records. This new naming structure allows that.

Added enable/disable option, which now requires for all records to be instantiated so we can properly communicate. This particular IOC spits some error messages with the current test setup because it only has two hybrids.

As noted on st.cmd, instead of naming records <Device>:HybN we will name them <Device><N>:<Property> (So the number is actually part of the device). So records with two digits refer to the whole IOC, records with three digits refer to hybrid-specific parameters and records with four digits refer to VMM3A specific parameters.

This commit was done with an inescrupulous "git add ." after several radical modifications. Anyway, the API was radically modified and basically the old way the code worked does not make any sense anymore. The desired architecture is the following: the API is going to be used as a class component. Each parameter will be created according to the desired number of enabled hybrids. Each parameter should use one simple API function. No information about the VMM or hybrids itself is stored in the VMMTbl class unless extremely needed. This commit leaves a few old parameters that should be removed in the future such as ADC_VALUE_VMM1, READ_ADC_VMMS, etc. This is only to serve as a reminder to add those later.

Before this, Any caput to AllST-S record would only set channels values to hybrid 0, vmm 0 because of hardcoded values. This commit makes the vmmST_ an array with epics parameters. The function getPair discovers the HYBRID-VMM pair for the parameter that was called and sets the correct pair register's values. Also, records are loaded with .sub files so we don't need to keep repeating record names with different numbers. All have been tested and works.

Before this, you would need to put array of values into ST-S. Now you can simply put 1 or 0 into AllST-S and it will set all channels. OOPT "on change" field is needed because for some reason without it even if you put PINI=NO in all these three ST-S records, it processes on IOC initialization, which I don't think is desired.

Add array of 64 elements. When you put into it, the nth element will set the nth ST channel of VMM to the value put to it. Added writeInt8Array method. Added the ST-T aao record. Added vmmST parameter to VMM class. Removed TO-DO comment that was about adding this functionality.
