Subject: bo Record not forcing VAL to 0 or 1
From: Bruce Hill <[email protected]>

In all the bo record documentation I can find, record processing specifies:
if DOL is DB_LINK and OMSL is CLOSED_LOOP
  • get value from DOL
  • check for link alarm
  • force VAL to be 0 or 1
However, the boRecord.c source code for 3.14.9 and 3.14.11 does not do this.
If you read a non-zero value from the DOL link, VAL and RVAL
retain that non-zero value, even if it isn't a 1.

Does anyone know if this is intentional, or a bug?

Thanks!
- Bruce
