Hello,
According to the release notice of EPICS:Motor record at the website http://www.aps.anl.gov/bcda/synApps/motor/R6-8/motor_release.html . It says that "Steffen Rau (Physik Instrumente
GmbH & Co.) has added asyn motor support for PI motion controllers that use the GCS2 (General Command Set) command language. This support resides in the <motor>/motorApp/PIGCS2Src/ directory of the motor module."
It means the GCS2 module should work well form motorR6-8.
I'm trying to build an IOC named C863 with EPICS base-3.14.12.5, asyn4-23, calc-R3-6-1, motorR6-9.
There is no error message in building the IOC except an weird stituation in thePI_GCS2Support.dbd file in motorR6-9/dbd directory.
The PI_GCS2Suport.dbd is,
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
include "asyn.dbd"
include "motorRecord.dbd"
##device(motor,VME_IO,devPIasyn,"PI Motor GCS2")
##driver(PIasyn)
registrar(PIasynDriverRegister)
##registrar(PIasynRegister)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Why the "PI Motor GCS2" is commented?
Regardless of this, we run the IOC in the terminal, the result of PI_GCS2_CreateController seemed the C-863.11 controller worked well. But there is an error when load the db file. The display of the linux terminal are as follows.

Please give us some advice with this. Thanks!
