For an application I need to upload a large number of analogue values to a device. Therefore the AAI record seems to suit perfect. I use EPICS R3.14.6 on a linux machine.
Stefan--
The device support aspect of your question has already been answered, but I do have one additional point to add. Search the tech-talk archives for aai and aao. There were a number of posts a few years back regarding some problems with these records which I don't believe were all addressed. I decided to use waveform records for this purpose instead of aai/aao after reading these.
Me too. I don't see any device support for this record in EPICS base, and I didn't find any by searching on the APS web site. I did find a message from long ago about use of the record at CEBAF (now JLAB). There is at least soft device support for the waveform record in base.
