Hello all,
I have noticed oddities with my longout records.
Particularly when I use the soft Channel record.

record(longout, "myLO") {
	field(VAL ,"100")
	field(SCAN, "Passive")
	field(DTYP, "Soft Channel")
}

Now if I create a medm text entry attached to this PV, and attempt to
modify the PV, it updates but not as expected. For example, if I enter
the value 10, the PV is updated to -11100023 (or something like that)

I am using medm 3.1.1 compiled against EPICS 3.14.9.

I have other longout records which are not "Soft Channel".
They correctly update with the same medm widget.

Any idea?
