I am using EPICS R3.13.1. The scan record does indeed succeed in causing the 
motor to move to desired postions. I am also using the scan record to collect
"detector" data at each position. I am able to extract the detector data
array using MEDM
without a problem but the positioner data array always reads zeros although the 
position is changing both visibly and also in Motor record position values
in MEDM.
