Zen -

I believe the device support for the Stanford Research DG535 (used widely) initializes the mbbi/mbbo/bi/bo strings of the records automatically (in other words it does not rely on the user properly defining them in the database).  If I remember, it initially caused some confusion because these strings don't show up in the records until iocInit.
