Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System
Hi all,
I'm testing the sexagesimal number format in MEDEM, but I'm experiencing a
strange behaviour.
I have defined an ao PV named AAA with and MEDEM Text Entry with sexagesimal
number format. In a terminal window I'm monitoring the AAA PV with camonitor.
As soon as I set in MEDEM the sexagesimal value 12:34:56.789 the PV assumes the
correct value, but immediately the value changes to something approximated.
This is the camonitor output:
$ camonitor -f16 AAA
AAA 2016-11-28 17:24:05.143777 0.0000000000000000
AAA 2016-11-28 17:24:18.312258 12.5824413888888884
AAA 2016-11-28 17:24:18.312329 12.5824409999999993
As soon as the PV gets it last value, the MEDEM Text Entry modifies it content
to 12:34:56.787599999997. It seems that MEDEM applies some correction to the
read-back value during conversion back to sexagesimal format (and looking MEDEM
source code indeed this is the case, but only to avoid string manipulation due
to reminders, this modified value is discarded after sexagesimal string
conversion).
I'm testing converted values also with this online converter:

I'm asking this because I'm porting this feature to CSS (CSS team, a patch will
follow soon :) and I'm having the very same behavior also with CSS.
Thanks,
Luca
