RE: macro value

["Mooney, Tim M." <mooney@aps.anl.gov>]

You're doing it right.  You should look at the dbLoadRecords command that loaded the scaler database to make sure you have the right macro values.  If you do, you should do
caget xxx:scaler974.CNT
and see if you can connect.  If not, you should look at the ioc console output to see if the database loaded correctly.

Subject: macro value

Hi tech-talk,

computer :  linux redhat6.0     3.14.12.1     synApp5.6
 
I startup the medm with "medm -x -macro "P=xxx:,S=scaler974" /home/bsrf-non/Documents/synApps_5_6/support/all_adl/scaler.adl", but it could connect.
I think it is the macro value, because I copy it from others( I could not contact him )and it worked well before. Recently, I delete the synApp by careless, it did not work evenif I rebuilt the synApp.

I know nothing about how to set the macro value , could you teach me how to know  your macro value.
Thanks for you advice!

Thank you,
Xing Li
