Hi Dave,
You can try "Long String Field Modifier $" for your purpose.

$ caput -S plain.VAL$ "this is a string longer than forty characters"
Old : plain.VAL$
New : plain.VAL$ this is a string longer than forty characters
$ caget -S plain.VAL$
plain.VAL$ this is a string longer than forty characters
I am also curious about how to do it through PV Access though...
Cheers,
Di

Subject: Truncated LSO
I'm using an lso record and my string gets truncated to 40 chars:
record(lso, "plain_lso")
{
field(SIZV, 256)
}
$ pvput plain_lso "This is a string longer than forty characters"
Old : <undefined> INVALID DRIVER UDF
New : 2024-07-30 12:45:33.238 "This is a string longer than forty char"
$ pvget plain_lso
plain_lso 2024-07-30 12:45:33.238 "This is a string longer than forty char"
What am I doing wrong here?
