Hi Brian,
Thanks very much for the reply. I would like to look at the CPID
record and have read about it in the R3.13 Record Reference manual.
The problem is that in my EPICS distribution the record does not
seem to be included.
Could you send me the cpidRecord.c and cpidRecord.dbd files and I
can hook them in and give it a try.
Regarads,
Len
