Good evening all.
Im working with the same IOC i was using here:
https://epics.anl.gov/tech-talk/2023/msg00020.php
<https://epics.anl.gov/tech-talk/2023/msg00020.php>. Now i loaded some
motor records in it and am trying to control the IOC via pyepics.
Something weird is happening.
i made the following python script:
import epics
a = epics.Motor("MGN:B:E873A:DIAG:X:m1")
a.put("CNEN", 1,wait=True)
assert a.get("CNEN")==1
And i frequently get assertion errors. What is happening? Shouldn't
wait=True prevent this? How do i debug this?
Even more weird: i tried debugging this with callbacks:
import epics, time
a = epics.Motor(
"MGN:B:E873A:DIAG:X:m1")
defprintvalue(**kwargs):
print(kwargs["value"])
b = epics.PV("MGN:B:E873A:DIAG:X:m1.CNEN")
b.add_callback(printvalue)
c = 1
whileTrue:
c=1-c
print("#####")
a.put("CNEN",c)
time.sleep(0.1)
And i get prints like:
#####
1
#####
0
#####
1
0
#####
Why do i sometimes get two callbacks and sometimes get only one? Thanks
in advance for any help.
I append the IOC initialization log and the substitutions file it loads:
