Subject: Writing array data in an AreaDetector application

I am attempting to add a configuration parameter to an areaDetector application.  The parameter is an array.

 

To implement the actual sending, I added method mmpadDetector::writeFloat64Array() to the application.

 

I created the waveform record

 

record(waveform, "$(P)$(R)PADDigiCorr")

{

    field(DTYP, "asynFloat64ArrayOut")

    field(INP, "@asyn($(PORT),$(ADDR),$(TIMEOUT))PADDIGICORR")

    field(FTVL, "DOUBLE")

    field(NELM, "16")

}

 

I can write to the array with caput.  However, I do not see any output from EPICS, and I have added prints to let me know I am in the writeFloat64Array() function.  I also note that waveform has no OUT field.  Does that have something to do with why the write function isn’t called?

 

Thank you,

 

Iain.
