Subject: SSCAN record - changing SDIS from a stringout
From: Steve Hunt <[email protected]>

Hi,

I am trying to change the value of SDIS in a sscan record from a
stringout and when I process the stringout (for example by writing a new
value to its VAL field from ca)  I get the error message

filename="../recGbl.c" line number=87
Illegal Database Request Type PV: myscan.SDIS error detected in routine:
dbPut - database
 request type is 0

I can change the value in SDIS directly from channel access, and I can
change other fields such as T1PV from a stringout.


SSCAN is VERS 4.12
Epics is 3.13.2



# works
record(stringout,"mystringoutC") {
        field(OUT,"myscan.T1PV")
}

# does not work
record(stringout,"mystringoutD") {
        field(OUT,"myscan.SDIS")
}

record(sscan,"myscan") {
}


What am I doing wrong ?

Steve
