AMC13 MMC Software

The AMC13 MMC software package can be found in the amc13config directory in the xDAQ release or Standalone Release. This package is a collection of python scripts which provide the ability to store configuration information into non-volatile EEPROM memory for each SPI port, to apply directly configuration information to an AMC13 after power up, and to issue useful commands remotely such as resets and handle swaps.
