RE: .PACT .TIME

Hi,

 

If you can modify the IOC, you could add in a forward linked calc record that increments a counter each time the record is processed. Then the calc record VAL field could be monitored by a client.

 

Cheers,

Matt

Leo, 

 

I need an operator (the client) to see if the record has been processed. Your advice works on the IOC side only.

Login and set the TPRO field to a non zero value.

It will print the name of the record and every passive record processed in this lock set after the record with the TPRO field set to 1.

 

Or, set the deadband of an AI or CALC to -1. It will post the VAL field each time as the absolute value of the change will exceed it.

Hi, 

 

Is there a way I can subscribe to these record fields?

I would like to know if my record has been processed.

The record itself is being processed ~30 seconds.

 

It's strange when I caget record.PACT I can see 1 or 0. However, camonitor doesn't react on the value change whatsoever.

 

Is there any other way around?
