  I have a question concerning the use of the function recGblResetAlarms in
conjunction with the db_post_events function.

  I wish to raise a monitor event when selected fields of a record are
changed by a dbPutField call (usually via a channel access message).  The
fields are all marked for special processing -- the special(SPC_MOD)
attribute of the field has been set. The examples indicate that monitor
activation during the "process" phase clearly require an initial call to
recGblResetAlarms; however, when the change of value takes place outside of
a call to the record's process function, does recGblResetAlarms need to be
invoked?
