David, Do you really want the record to refrain from processing,
or is it sufficient that it refrain from writing to hardware?
If you just want the record to write only *changes* to hardware,
you can do this in device support. If you want it to not process,
then I'm pretty sure no record can do this without outside help.
If a record were to decide whether or not to process based on the
value written to it, putNotify would not work for that record.
(I know because I wrote a record that did this, and decided to
abandon the tactic when putNotify was developed.)
I would use a calcout record to write to the output record, and
set the calcout record's OOPT field to "On Change".

Is there a way for me to set a bo (or ao) record so that it only
processes when it's value is changed?
I've got a number of those records that I only need written to the PLC
when the value is changed.
