I would use a binary output, with “HIGH” field set to 60.

What is the simplest way to implement a watchdog PV?

I would like something that behave as follow:

* Process set PV to 1 (ping the PV)

* if PV is no reset to 1 (re-pinged) in the next minute then the PV goes automatically to 0.

 

I have been using APS RunControl records to do this, but was wondering if there are other ways...

 

Cheers,
