I am learning how to use EDM.  I have created a message box monitor and connected it to a PV of type double.  The soft IOC updates the PV value avery few seconds.  A typical value is 9.1990930.  In the message box I see 99999999... Where another 9 is appended to the first line each time the PV updates.  In the message box properties there is nothing that controls formatting displayed values, nor is there a way to add a newline after each update.  Are these somehow controlled via the IOC record setup?  What do I need to do to have each full floating point value appear on a separate line?  The same string of 9's appears in the log file.

Also, how can I force a "Passive" record processing in the IOC from edm?
Thanks,

Zen
