Your IOC application needs to be built with the DBD and library file from the EPICS motor module. Add lines like this to your application Makefile:

MyApp_DBD   += motorSupport.dbd 
 MyApp_LIBS := motor (MyApp_LIBS)

If you are using the Galil driver then also add lines like this:

 MyApp_DBD   += GalilSupport.dbd
 MyApp_LIBS := GalilSupport (MyApp_LIBS)

You need to add the paths to those modules to your application configure/RELEASE file as well.

Hi,

I am a EPICS beginner.  I created an motor ioc and interfaced it successfully using CSS on three different occasions.

Next I tried to create a soft ioc to move my motors in the previous real motor ioc.

I am trying to create a soft ioc, I got this error message but could not figure out.
ecord "XF:19IDC-ES-G0{MD2:Pitch}Mtr" is of unknown type "motor"
Error at or before ")" in file "../../db/galil0_pitch.db" line 20
Error: syntax error

Do you have any suggestions.

Thank you kindly for your help,
Alex
