Overview

"MAS" is meant to refer primarily to the lowest levels of the control software, including the PCI card driver, command line utilities, and basic python modules.

For information on higher-level programs, such as the auto-tuning codes, please see MCE script.

Usage

These two utilities may be compiled separately from the rest of MAS, even on systems (ie. MacOS X) which are unable to run the control software. See Building mas_param on MacOS X for instructions.

Development
