                    throws Exception

Parameters:

name - Name of the channel (PV)

writer -  

enablement - How channel affects its groups

buffer_capacity - Size of sample buffer

last_timeestamp -  

period_estimate - Estimated change period [seconds]

delta - Value changes ≥ this value will be stored

configservice - ConfigService

archdbrtype - ArchDBRTypeS

controlPVname -  

commandThreadID -  

usePVAccess -  

Throws:

Exception - On error in PV setup

Method Detail

getMechanism

public String getMechanism()

Specified by:

getMechanism in class ArchiveChannel

Returns:

Short description of sample mechanism

handleNewValue

protected boolean handleNewValue(DBRTimeEvent timeevent)

Attempt to add each new value to the buffer.

Overrides:

handleNewValue in class ArchiveChannel

Parameters:

timeevent - DBRTimeEvent

Returns:

true if the value was already written because it's the first value after startup or error, so there's no need to write that sample again.
