Hi Kristi,

Yes, it would be helpful to know what you mean. Do you think that the card is failing to respond to the commands, or that the commands are not propagating down to the card? Is it an intermittent problem? Could you enable the asyn trace before the call to config2? 

I have had problems with 'new' OMS cards being configured with non-default settings, so I always have RDF as my first command in the configuration string.

Regards,

Can you be more specific about what you mean by "the axis configuration settings don't always seem to stick for every axis"?

Do  you mean they are not restored correctly after a reboot?  Or do they get lost while the IOC is running?

Mark

Subject: MAXv model-3 driver -  omsMAXvConfig  problem

Hello,

We have seen a problem with  the MAXv omsAsyn support,  where the axis configuration settings don't always seem to Stick for every axis. We have a temporary workaround, where to use the MAXv command "APP" which saves the configuration settings as the Power-up default.

Has anyone implemented a solution to this problem?

Details:
EPICS R4.13.12
RTEMS-R4.9.4
MVME6100
MAXv-8000  FW 1.44

 - Regard,
  Kristi
