Hi Pavel,

 

Firstly, we can’t see how the record "$(P)$(R)WF1 gets processed. Is there any forward link to this record? for instance,  

 

record(… ,  "$(P)$(R)wf1") {

…

field(FLNK, "$(P)$(R)WF1")

}

 

If no, you may add CP or CPP in INPA, INPB, INCC,  such as field(INCC, "$(P)$(R)wf1 CP").

 

Secondly, you may set "$(P)$(R)WF1.MDEL to -1, which means the monitor is triggered whenever the record is scanned. Then, camonitor “"$(P)$(R)WF1”. But I’m not sure if this works for the acalcout record.

 

Lastly, I’m not quite sure if you used the "Store" operator correctly for "AA:=CC*5/128*A-B;AA". Does it mean: evaluate the _expression_ CC*5/128*A-B, store the result in the input array AA, and set the AVAL field to AA?

Hello,

 

I am experiencing some difficulties with this record type. 

 

record(acalcout, "$(P)$(R)WF1") {

  field(NELM, "2500")

  field(INPA, "$(P)$(R)setY1:RBV")

  field(INPB, "$(P)$(R)ch1pos:RBV")

  field(INCC, "$(P)$(R)wf1")

  field(CALC, "AA:=CC*5/128*A-B;AA")

}

 

I would like to plot an array in CSS 3.1.4. So I'm using an XY graph widget with the Y PV parameter pointed to $(P)$(R)WF1.AVAL.

However it does not put a monitor on the AVAL field. So the plot is not being updated every time the calculation is made.

 

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
