The shell command "caget" will core dump as follows: chiron 578: caget S:bpm32:SlowBh:xBF Segmentation fault (core dumped) chiron 579: notes sw-bugs when accessing float arrays > 4000 and double arrays > 2000. Inspection of the code shows these limits are hard coded. Real channel access allows somewhat greater limits, 4089 for floats I believe. But that's beside the point, caget should not core dump. Frank
