Thanks guys, 

The problem was that my path to AG34970 was not set correctly (wrong directory!). Fixing this, making clean, and making again did the trick. Thanks again.

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.
