Hi,
"Illegal field value PV: ai-int16-1 s7plcInitRecordAi: illegal INP field type"
Judging by this, your EPICS isn't happy about "INP" field.
This is what you have now:
field (INP, "@Testsystem:0/0 'T=INT16 L=0 H=1000'")
Looking through this (http://epics.web.psi.ch/style/software/s7plc/s7plc.html) the obvious first thing to try would be to remove extra pair of single quotation marks that you have.
Change
field (INP, "@Testsystem:0/0 'T=INT16 L=0 H=1000'")
to
field (INP, "@Testsystem:0/0 T=INT16 L=0 H=1000")
See if this helps?

Hello sir,
I used the driver package s7plc.tgz from PSI and tried to connetct the EPICS IOCsoft and siemens PLC317-2PN/DP with TCP protocol. When the IOC starts, the problems like these followed:
Illegal field value PV: ai-int16-1 s7plcInitRecordAi: illegal INP field type
Illegal field value PV: ai-int16-1 s7plcGetInIntInfo: uninitialized record
s7plcReceiveThread Testsystem:0: read error after 0 of 10 bytes: Connection timed out
Is the cause of the problems the ioc failed to connect with PLC? Or there are other reasons?
Thank you.
Look forward to your answer.
Best regards,
Jie Xu
