Re: asynSetTrace

Hi Petra,

First of all:

Which version of asyn are you using?

Any particular reason for using an older EPICS 7 version, not the latest release of that branch? (Not that it would change anything for this particular issue, but...)

I want to use

asynSetTraceIOMask(portName,addr,mask)

I used EPICS 3.14.12.5 and I had no problems.
Now I use EPICS -7.0.3.1.
I configured my IOC like described in
https://docs.epics-controls.org/projects/how-tos/en/latest/getting-started/creating-ioc.html
I add
asynSetTraceIOMask("L0",-1,0x2)
asynSetTraceMask("L0",-1,0x9)
to st.cmd, but nothing happens.

Does the command "help" on the IOC console show these commands? (That's always a quick check if things have been registered properly.)

Do you have an existing asyn port with that name correctly configured?

If yes to both: Are you sure that something is happening on that port? Do you have records connected that are working?
