It sounds like the version of the library I included with ADKinetix does not work with your camera, possibly a firmware difference? Our cameras are a bit older, probably using a firmware that is a bit out of date (and the version of the library is 3.9.6.2,
which is a year or two old I think). Perhaps you could make a PR with the newer PVCam versions you are using to ADKinetix, that seem to work?

The same hack also allows the IOC to run.

If I do ldd on the EPICS built FanSpeedAndTemperature I see it points to
libpvcam.so.2 => [ ... ]/ADKinetix/lib/linux-x86_64/libpvcam.so.2
I then copy libpvcam.* from
/opt/pvcam/library/x86_64/
to
[...]/ADKinetix/lib/linux-x86_64
And my EPICS built version of FanSpeedAndControl now works
What is going on?

I have the latest ADKinetix source code.
I modified ADKinetix::ADKinetix to just retrieve the camera name, following
/opt/pvcam/sdk/examples/code_samples
However, the returned name is nonsense. Each run returns a different nonsense result. This was true before my modifications also.
----------
I then did the following:
I verify that I can successfully run
/opt/pvcam/sdk/examples/code_samples/bin/linux-x86_64/release/FanSpeedAndTemperature
Then I copied the example source files
FanSppecandTemperature.cpp Common.cpp Common.h version.h
to
ADKinetix/kinetixApp/src
And I add these lines to the Makefile
PROD_HOST += FanSpeedAndTemperature FanSpeedAndTemperature_LIBS += pvcam FanSpeedAndTemperature_SRCS += FanSpeedAndTemperature.cpp FanSpeedAndTemperature_SRCS += Common.cpp
Which builds FanSpeedAndTemperature using the EPICS build system
The version of FanSpeedAndTemeprature built in this way has the same behavior, outputs a random nonsense name
PVCAM initialized Number of cameras found: 1 Camera 0 name: '��b"�'
I don't know how to proceed. Any advice appreciated.

I have a new Teledyne Retiga E7.
I first tested on windows using the PVCAM software and the Beacon software.
Next on Linux, Alma 9, I verified that /opt/pvcam/bin/PVCamTest/x86_64/'PVCanTestCli succeeds.
Then using ADKinetix R1-1, base-7.0.6 , areaDetector-R3-13 I get a segfault (see below)
What should I do next?
