Subject: waveform ENUM FTVL or BOOL FTVL

Hi,

Our Linux OS based instrument will be running soft IOC. The instrument supports various data types. One of the data types that I have trouble supporting in EPICS is array of bool values. My intention was to use ENUM FTVL for waveform but the problem I'm seeing in the IOC shell is:

missing record support entry table Record Support Routine (get_enum_str) Record Type waveform PV h:b::adllr4:adc_module:dc_rej_bypass-I.VAL dbGet


I just wanted to confirm that for waveform record FTVL ENUM is indeed supported. What am I doing wrong?

Here is the PV definition:
record(waveform, "$(H)$(B):adllr4:adc_module:dc_rej_bypass-I")
{
        field(DESC, "TBD")
        field(INP, "boards.adllr4.adc_module.dc_rej_bypass")
        field(DTYP, "liberaGet")
        field(NELM, "9")
        field(FTVL, "ENUM")
}

Note that using other FTVL values works, but they are not "restrictive" enough to allow only '0'/'1' or 'false'/'true' values.


Best regards,
Hinko
