arrays in epics records

[ktsubota@keck.hawaii.edu (Kevin Tsubota)]

Rozelle and anyone else who can help,

I have the following comments about putting arrays in EPICS records from our
training session:

>!***************************************

I've added the following in a SERVO record that I'm creating and it
builds with no errors.  However I want to be able to do "dbpf" and also be
able to display entries in the arrays via DM.

>"Velocity filter coeff arr"	AVF   SPC_DBADDR ASL1 DBF_NOACCESS  NO     3      80		double avf[NUMB_VF_COEFF];
>"Feedforward pos coeff arr"	AFFP  SPC_DBADDR ASL1 DBF_NOACCESS  NO     3      80		double affp[NUMB_FF_P_COEFF];
>"Feed forward rate coeff arr"	AFFR  SPC_DBADDR ASL1 DBF_NOACCESS  NO     3      80		double affr[NUMB_FF_R_COEFF];

But I can't.  From DM when I access the fields I get the following errors from the VxWorks shell:

llegal Database Request Type PV: dcs:axe:az:servo.AFFP error detected in routine: db_name_to_addr error
Illegal Database Request Type PV: dcs:axe:az:servo.AFFR error detected in routine: db_name_to_addr error

Can I have array fields and is it also possible to access each individual entry in the array?

Thanks,
