You can set the drive limits using the DRVL and DRVH fields. GUI limits can be set with LOPR and HOPR fields.

Hi,  EPICS community.

I'm writing a motor controller driver based on asynMotor (C++ classes asynMotorController and asynMotorAxis).

To read/write some specific settings of the motor controller (which are integer values),

I implemented:

asynStatus readInt32(asynUser *pasynUser, epicsInt32 *value);

asynStatus writeInt32(asynUser *pasynUser, epicsInt32 value);

Then using longout records to access, something like following and it works:

record(longout, "$(P)Setting1"){

  field(DTYP, "asynInt32")

  field(OUT, "@asyn($(PORT) $(ADDR))SETTING1)

  field(PINI, "YES")

}

However, the setting has a range of permitted values. For example, the lowest value is 1 and the highest value is 30.

What is the conventional and suggested way to set this range?

Thanks. (This is my first post.)
