Hi Rod,

I reported the bug using the address from the EPICS VDCT page. You have
to replace the "_at_" in the address with "@".

Sorry, but I don't know of a solution.

John.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
In VDCT the ‘\’ character, used to signal special, nonprintable,
characters is stripped from all field definitions when a file is read in
and are then permanently lost when saved.  i.e.



field(OUT,"@$(PORT) {\x040011\x022WL>%s}{\x06}")



becomes



field(OUT,"@$(PORT) {x040011x022WL>%s}{x06}")



This is a common usage for drvAscii serial communication.
