Hi:


It's about the DTYP. When I take the DTYP line out:

>   field( DTYP, "Raw Soft Channel")

.. it works OK.

When I add the Raw Soft Channel, it doesn't.

But then I cannot change it from a command line "caput ..ToT 1" either.

So this is unrelated to the CA client (command line caput, phoebus, ...) and instead a feature of the IOC database and the Raw Soft Channel support.

When you select Raw Soft Channel, you need to write the RVAL.

.. but then that's just a number, no longer an enum, so you cannot use "Items from PV" on the widget.

--> Remove the DTYP.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Phoebus Radiobutton cannot set mbbi record
 
Hey all,

in a test setup I'm currently using base 7.0.2.2 and Phoebus (commit
ff6d0dc4).

Now I have some bi and mbbi records like this:

> record( mbbi, "PANDA:LMD:MUPIX:TELESCOPE:L$(LAYER):ToT" ) {
>   field( DTYP, "Raw Soft Channel")
>   field( ZRST, "ToT" )
>   field( ONST, "2Thres" )
>   field( TWST, "Ramp")
>   field( ZRVL, "0" )
>   field( ONVL, "2" )
>   field( TWVL, "1" )
> }
> record( bi, "PANDA:LMD:MUPIX:TELESCOPE:L$(LAYER):bandgap1" ) {
>   field( ZNAM, "disabled" )
>   field( ONAM, "active" )
> }

For the mbbi record I'm using the Radiobutton widget and for the bi the
checkbox widget.
I tried CA as well as PVaccess (PV name "PANDA:..." and "pva://PANDA:...)

In both cases I cannot change the value of the records. The checkbox
only works if I explicitly append ".RVAL" to the
PV name. The Radiobutton does nothing. Is this behavior expected or am I
doing something wrong?

Best regards,
Florian
