setam

PURPOSE ^

SETAM - Sets analog monitor value

SYNOPSIS ^

function ErrorFlag = setam(Family, varargin)

DESCRIPTION ^

SETAM - Sets analog monitor value
 If using family name, device list method,
 ErrorFlag = setam(Family, newAM, DeviceList)

 If using common name method,
 ErrorFlag = setam(Family, newAM, CommonNames, WaitFlag)

 If using channel name method,
 ErrorFlag = setam('ChannelName', newAM)

 Inputs:  Family = Family Name 
                   Accelerator Object
                   Cell Array of Accelerator Objects or Family Names
                   For CommonNames Family=[], searches all families
          ChannelName = Channel access channnel name (scalar or vector inputs)
                        Matrix of channel names (scalar inputs only)
                        Cell array of channel names
          CommonName = Common name (scalar or vector inputs), 
                       Matrix of common names (scalar inputs only)
                       Cell array of common names
          newAM  = new "monitor" or cell array of new "monitors"
          DeviceList ([Sector Device #] or [element #]) {default or empty list: whole family}
          WaitFlag = 0    -> return immediately
                     1    -> wait until ramping is done + BPM delay {default}
                     else -> wait until ramping is done
                      
 Note #1: The number of colomns of newSP and DeviceList must be equal,
          or newSP must be a scalar.  If newSP is a scalar, then all
          devices in DeviceList will be set to the same value. 
 Note #2: When using cell array all inputs must be the same size cell array
          and the output will also be a cell array. 
 Note #3: For families and accelerator data structures unknown devices or elements are ignored.
          A warning message will be printed to the screen. 
 Note #4: Channel name method is always Online!
 Note #5: setam is an odd thing to do but it's here incase you want it.

 Ex., setam(HCM',1.23)  sets the entire HCM family to 1.23
      setam({'HCM','VCM'},{10.4,5.3})  sets the entire HCM family to 10.4 and VCM family to 5.3
      setam(AccData, 1.5, [1 2])  if AccData is a properly formated Accelerator Data Structure
                                  then the 1st sector, 2nd element is set to 1.5
