Dear EPICS Experts,

I'm using pmacAsynCoord with a pmac turbo2 brick controller.  What I notice is that occasionally the pmac reports that a move is finished, that the coordinate system is not motion, but the .MOVN field of the motor record stays high despite reaching the desired position and not actually being in motion.  At this point the pmac reports in position, but the motor record does not seem to have any additional control effect (nor should it I believe), ie the .MOVN field stays high but there is no further motion.  Are there any motor record fields or other parameters you might advise having a look at that could have an effect on this?

Thank you in advance for your help,

-Dean Hidas
