Hi Mark,

I am reading the ai value of moxa E1242 multifunctional IO module and I have a problem,

Cannot display floating point numbers, only integer numbers, 

cannot display decimal places.

What's the reason? thanks.


#moxa1242.cmd
#!./../../bin/linux-x86_64/modbusApp
< envPaths
dbLoadDatabase("../../dbd/modbus.dbd")
modbus_registerRecordDeviceDriver(pdbbase)
drvAsynIPPortConfigure("moxa","192.168.127.254:502",0,0,1)
asynSetOption("moxa",0, "disconnectOnReadTimeout", "Y")
modbusInterposeConfig("moxa",0,5000,0)
#read moxa E1242 AI_scaledValue,7 is little endian,8 is big endian
drvModbusAsynConfigure("MOXA_E1242_In_Word",   "moxa",    255, 4,  0x208,  0x8,    0x7,  2000,    "moxa E1242")
# Enable ASYN_TRACEIO_HEX on octet server
asynSetTraceIOMask("moxa",0,4)
# Enable ASYN_TRACE_ERROR and ASYN_TRACEIO_DRIVER on octet server
asynSetTraceMask("moxa",0,9)
dbLoadTemplate("moxa1242.substitutions")
iocInit
