In the edm help document, it says specified PVs operations can be logged. For example, if I want to log PV1 named as "test:ai1", not log PV2 named as "test:ai2", how to edit edmPvObjects file?

ps, if I set EDMpUTLOGGER=cat, the tty out put messages as follows :

user="sinclair" host="edmhost" dsp=":0.0" name="sinclairHost:ao0"...... old="0.000000" new="1.000000"

can I add the time information in a simple way?

thanks a lot for your help.

Please also have a look at the caPutLog module: https://github.com/epics-modules/caPutLog

It hooks into the Access Security layer and does such kind of tracking and logging on the server (IOC) side, which - depending on your exact use case - might be a more appropriate solution.
