Hi: You could either directly write what you want to a CHAR waveform instead of writing to an array of Strings. Or you can add a subroutine (gensub, ..) record to your IOC to read the strings into a char waveform. -Kay From: Pavel Masloff <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> To: Kasemir Kay <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: [CSS] commas in TextUpdate > But it might be better to work around this further down on the IOC: > Create just one string with the text that you want. > Since a stringin/stringout record is limited to 40 chars, use a waveform > of CHAR for that custom text. Kay, could you please elaborate on this? How can I pass the actual waveform of STRINGS into a new waveform of CHAR?
