  • value writing is still allowed on the PyDM GUI interface.
Does this mean the widget is only "enabled" on the UI level, but the actual PV does not update if you try to write, or are you actually seeing the PV updating on a separate terminal?

For the reason explained on previous answer, and being pyDM a desktop app, I would expect the first. If that's not it, could you share details on your ACF settings?

I'm particularly interested in these types of GUI concerns at the moment for WEISS.
