Subject: missing monitors from boRecord
From: "Davidsaver, Michael" <[email protected]>

All,

It looks like the MLST (monitor last value) field of the boRecord is not
being initialized (always 0).  The problem occurs if VAL is initialized
to 1 by device support (MLST still 0).  Monitors are posted only if VAL
!= MLST.  So setting VAL to 0 from 1 (MLST still 0) won't post a
monitor, and writing 1 will post an extra monitor.

I think the correct action is to set MLST=VAL at the end of the
init_record.

Does this seem appropriate?
