Hi Marcus,

 

You can try the following

>>pv_name {"longString":true}

This instructs diirt to treat this waveform as a long string

 

Cheer,

Subject: CSS PVManager/Diirt - Waveform of Characters to String

 

Hi All,

AFAIK to ged rid of the 40 character limit of a string one can use a waveform of characters instead. When I want to display such a PV
with Probe I get sth like "[90, 58, 47, ...]" as the value. With caget and "-S" I can get a String.
Is there a way in CSS/Diirt to do this, maybe a formula that I missed. Or do I have to write my own formula to transform a VByteArray
to a String ?

Thanks
Marcus
