Hi,
When defining a PV name longer than 32 characters in $FORCEPV statement in the alarm configuration file, the PV name actually gets truncated (alh 1.2.26 version). After digging a little bit in the alh code, I noticed that in alConfig.c line 494:
rtn = sscanf(buf,"%20s%32s%6s%lf%9s",command,name,mask,&dbl,string);
the PV name (name variable) is limited to 32 characters. I think it should be either %s or limited to 64 characters.
Regards,
Juan Carlos.
