You could layer your own mbbo record on top which then writes to the original area detector record.


In your record, note that you don't have to use

ZRVL = 0

_ONVL_ = 1

TWVL = 2


You can use

ZRVL = 1

_ONVL_ = 2

TWVL = 16


So define the items in your mbbo to list only those values that you want to show on the UI,

and create your own top-level UI  with your mbbo.

Subject: Bypassing Options in ImageMode in AreaDetector
 

I am using areaDetector in a product.  We only want to use “Single” and “Continuous” ImageMode, not “Multiple”.  In the first implementation, I modified ADBase.template to remove the “Multiple” option.  For a more portable solution, I made a new mbbo record without the Multiple option, and set the OUT field to $(P)$(R)ImageMode.  However, I had to define “ZRVAL” and “TWVAL”, skipping “ONVAL” (Multiple), leaving a gap in a drop-down menu.  Is there a way to avoid this gap?

 

Thank you,
