The SCAN field can be modified at runtime. You can have some routine do a
put into this field, or perhaps do it within the database using a calc and
an mbbo or a calcout. I have a couple of records where the SCAN rate can
be set by the operator using an MEDM "menu" button. But for something like
the temperature readback, I would just leave it at the fast rate all of
the time.
just concerning the fast scan rate: we monitor cryogenic temperatures
with scan rates of 10 seconds. As any failure we consider likely requires
human intervention, any scan rate faster than human response time
would be overkill (also, consider physically possible temeprature
changes versus resolution of the measuring device) - in our case
'response' will at minimum require walking down a flight of stairs
at 14,000 ft elevation, and possibly driving a few to 30 miles.
10 seconds is adequate for us, you may want 1 second or even 0.5.
'Passive' doesn't sound like a good idea though.
