All,

I was hoping to use labCA on a 64 bit Windows 7 machine but since I

don't have time currently to build a 64 bit labCA I tried the following:

64 bit Windows 7 running 32 bit Matlab 2010a

used by 32 bit build of labCA 3.1

when I do an lcaGet I see that Matlab starts caRepeater but it does not

find the PV requested

>> lcaGet('RF1DSP01_ticks')
Initializing labCA Release '$Name: labca_3_1 $'...

??? Error using ==>  lcaGet

multi_ezca_get_nelem - ezcaGetNelem(): could not find process variable

: RF1DSP01_ticks

I downloaded and ran Carsten Winkler's CA Watcher, a Java Channel Access

application (thanks Carsten!), and this works. So it is not a network or

firewall issue.

Any ideas?

Or does anyone have a 64 bit Windows build of labCA?

Happy Holidays,
