Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Can someone tell me the detailed meanings and choices available for the
fields in record .ascii files?  There is quite a bit on page 91 of the
application developer guide and I don't want this reproduced, but it is
not always illuminating.

For example, the description of the interest field is `interest level'.
I know it is usually a number between 0 and 4, and I have had it
described to me in the past, but the exact meanings of each number
elude me. (Up to now I have got away with just copying existing records
and disguising by ignorance.) There are some DB_INTEREST_* #defines in
recSup.h but these seem to be flags, not a level.

Also, have things changed a bit for 3.12? I can't find any Access
security level fields in my 3.11 record definitions.
