Dear Paul,

Thanks for the comment to transferArray.

> field(OUT,DBF_INLINK)

This is because, once, we need to copy all components of output waveform 
into the VAL field of transferArray.
And we modify them with information from input waveform.
Then, finally, they are re-stored into output waveform again.

This is the real process of transferArray.
For the first step, when we copy from output waveform, we use get_link.
That's why here is "DBF_INLINK" but not "DBF_OUTLINK".

Could you try to process without the modification you suggest?
I think it works without any problem.

However please tell me if you find some problem related this.

Cheers,
Hiroshi.
