Combining a file of device names, or aidalist with a unix pipe, you can get a number of values at a time. For instance, get the Twiss parameters from the online model, of all the devices in a file. Say your devices were listed in a file (eg checkDevices27Oct2008.txt_Aida_NO), then you can get their values like this:
| Code Block |
|---|
[tersk02]:u/cd/greg> cat checkDevices27Oct2008.txt_Aida_NO | xargs -I {} -t aidaget "{}//twiss" -DMODE=5
|
...
You can use output of aidalist directly to get values of a number of devices.
Combine aidalist with caget:
| Code Block |
|---|
[softegr@lcls-builder script]$ aidalist BPMS:LI27:%:X1 | xargs -I{} caget {}
BPMS:LI27:201:X1 -0.210293

BPMS:LI27:501:X1 -0.252207
BPMS:LI27:601:X1 -0.699057
BPMS:LI27:701:X1 0.00149554
