Ray,

Can you provide more details about what "disabling the axis" means? The

behavior of the motor record's CNEN field, which is labeled "Torque" on

the motorx_all screen, is controller dependent; for some controllers

CNEN enables/disables drive power, for other controllers CNEN switches

between open and closed loop control, and some drivers do nothing when

CNEN is changed.

Hi,

How can I prevent changing an EPICS motor record’s commanded position

(.VAL field) without disabling the axis?

Thank you,

Ray
