Gemini EPICS 3.12.2.GEM5 records used by the NAOMI project

Gemini standard records (CAD, CAR and gensub) are used for those NAOMI systems that don't contain a steppermotor. In these cases, it is not appropriate to use the GMOS deviceControl and assemblyControl records. A CAD/CAR pair (to provide an interface that is the same as that provided by the assemblyControl record) and a single gensub record (to provide the functionality required by the software) are used in their place.
