Here’s an all-database solution that does what you want, I think. I’m no expert on databases, so there may very well be ways of doing this with fewer records.

The ‘count’ record increments each time it’s processed unless the ‘clear’ record has pushed a 1 into the ‘C’ field.

record(bi, "$(user):now") {

    field(PINI, "YES")

    field(SCAN, "10 second")

    field(FLNK, "$(user):day")

}

record(stringin, "$(user):day") {

    field(DTYP, "Soft Timestamp")

    field(INP,  "@%j")

    field(TSEL, "$(user):now.TIME")

    field(FLNK, "$(user):clear")

}

record(calcout, "$(user):clear") {

    field(INPA, "$(user):day NPP MS")

    field(INPB, "1000")

    field(CALC, "A<B;B:=A")

    field(OOPT, "When Non-zero")

    field(OCAL, "1")

    field(OUT,  "$(user):count.C PP")

}

record(calc, "$(user):count") {

    field(VAL,  "0")

    field(TPRO, 1)

    field(CALC, "C?0:VAL+1;C:=0")

}

Hi all,
I'd like to create a database record that counts based on a forward link. This record would need to reset back to zero
at 12AM every day.

Use case, is where a beam line user hits a reset button repeatably (tied to a bo record) as a work around for something that is broken.
I'd like to track these resets.

Is there a way to do this with base?
I'm considering writing a C subroutine for this is it doesn't already exist.

Cheers!
