Subject: Py-Epics and string waveform records

Hi,

Does anyone know if Py-Epics should be able to correctly read/write string waveform records?  I only seem to be able to access  the first element.

using caget (C utility) from base is OK, it returns all elements

>caget  stringWaveform
has09eenv:weather:area1:test 5 testing one two three four

but using Py-Epics I only see the first although the count is correct

In [12]: pv=epics.PV('stringWaveform')

In [13]: pv.get()
Out[13]: 'testing'

In [14]: pv.count
Out[14]: 5

float waveform records are fine though.

Thanks
