Hi Andy,
If you look at the record reference manual for the lsi record here
https://epics.anl.gov/base/R7-0/4-docs/lsiRecord.html
<https://epics.anl.gov/base/R7-0/4-docs/lsiRecord.html>you will see that the VAL field has DCT=NO. I believe that means you cannot initialize the VAL field in your database file, but I could be mistaken. Did you see any error or warning when you loaded the database file?
Mark

Subject: PINI field for lsi record doesn't seem to work?
All,
I have a simple lsi record shown below.
record(lsi, “joke_record”)
{
field(SIZV, 128)
field(VAL, "If you read this, tell me a funny joke")
field(PINI, “YES”)
}
When I start up the IOC and do a caget on “joke_record”, I do not get the initial value. Feel like there is something very simple I forgot…
Thanks,
Andy
