Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Hi,

[Question]

Is there any good way to set a timestamp of a record while a
process() function of a device support routine is called?

[Why I'm asking this question]

We need to import live data from the facility control
system, which uses a proprietary control system. This system
update the information on the memory periodically with
theire own timestamp. We would like to use
this timestamp as a timestamp of EPICS records rather than
the timestamp when the record is updated.

Looking at aiRecord.c, for example, recGblGetTimeStamp is
called AFTER a call to read() function in a device support
is finished.

Any idea?
