I think that David meant that writing a '1' to a record that was already a '1' would have no effect.
Perhaps a calcout record in front of each such bo record would work?

That is the behavior you will get if you set the SCAN rate to Passive. That means the record only processes when you write to the VAL field via a database link with the PP attribute or via channel access.

Is there a way for me to set a bo (or ao) record so that it only
processes when it's value is changed?

I've got a number of those records that I only need written to the PLC
when the value is changed.
