Hi Paramveer,

I have a couple of suggestions.

- You appear to be running asyn R4-18.  That release is 5 years old, and there have been a number of bug fixes and enhancements since then.  Is it possible for you to upgrade?

- The HowToDoSerial tutorial you are using is for an obsolete method of talking to devices using the devGpib device support.  There are very few people who use that anymore who would be able to help you.  The recommended replacement is StreamDevice, and there is a new tutorial that shows how to use it with asyn.

Mark

Subject: IOC for keithley 6485 using asyn

hello,
      I am designing an IOC for Keithley 6485 using IOC
after all steps discussed in
http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/modules/soft/asyn/R4-3/HowToDoSerial/tutorial.html ,When I run the IOC following is the output --

pxbl21-1@linux-edqv:~/programs/epics/bl21/K6485/iocBoot/iocK6485> ../../bin/linux-x86_64/K6485 st.cmd
