Dear Yasemin,

In your start-up script it appears you have defined Port=L0 but the record wants it in capital letters.

So your dbLoadRecords should be

dbLoadRecords("/opt/epics/modules/soft/asyn4-20/db/asynRecord.db","P=yasemin:,R=asyn,PORT=L0,ADDR=24,IMAX=100,OMAX=100")

Give this a try.

Kind regards, Alan
