RE: channel connect timeout error

Please also show the output of the following command at the IOC prompt:

epicsPrtEnvParams

and the output of the following command at the shell prompt where you are running caput:

printenv | grep EPICS

Hello, Palak.

Is it a soft IOC running on the same host on which you're running caput?

Can you provide the console output for starting the soft IOC?

Can you provide the .db file you used to define the record providing the
CTRL-FOOO:input PV?

What does "dbpf CTRL-FOOO:input 10" show when entered on the IOC's
console?
