Run Control Guide

Design Principles

• Separate run controller per crate. Ideally the same program for all types of crate.
• Additional synchronisation controllers (very simple).
• State transition actions devolved to the modules.
• Steering of (run type dependent) transition actions in run control module classes - ie separate from hardware module classes which provide the necessary services.
• Run types implemented as subclasses of a generic base class.
• Initialise module configuration from the OKS database. But use parts files to describe the internals of the hardware modules. At least for now.
