Re: [EXTERNAL] Calc Module of SynApps: Issue with long string CALC$

["Kasemir, Kay via Tech-talk" <tech-talk at aps.anl.gov>]

> I am attaching the screenshot of the userCalc.bob file in phoebus, display builder with the Format set as string, Still the problem persists. The moment I change it to just .CALC I am able to enter 36 chars.

Can't duplicate. This is my example record:

# Executed with softIoc -d ... from EPICS R7.0.4.1

record(calc, "test_calc")

{

    field(SCAN, "1 second")

    field(CALC, "RNDM*100")

}

The CALC is served as a STRING and works OK with the default format.

The CALC$ is served as a BYTE array, by default displayed as such, so need to set Format do String:

So you have a different release of EPICS base?

Did you switch phoebus to default to pva:// instead of ca://?
