Hi
The path may be case sensitive
Make sure the path is absolutely correct for the location of your dbd file
In your post, I see uppercase AG versus lower case ag

I would like to be able to read inputs from one device and based on that, write output to a second device. As a first step I have created device support in /Users/andrewwagner/ASYN/instruments/ag34970 (my local machine) that I have successfully tested. I am creating my application in /Users/andrewwagner/ASYN/applications/MagnetCtrl . I have the lines:

In brief I'm trying to build an ioc where the device support is located in some other directory but am having trouble with the Makefile rules. Thanks very much for your help.
