Hi,

I am working on modifying an EPICS interface for a LakeShore 336 (LS336)

temperature controller.

In that connection I need to send strings to the LS336 which extends 40

characters.

I found the following thread:
http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/tech-talk/2016/msg00887.php

which discusses a similar problem, and suggests to use waveform records

and StreamDevice (which I am already using).

However, I am unable to get this to work.

As I read the documentation of waveform records they are only for input,

and hence does not allow to set the OUT field (I am using EPICS 3.14)

Can anyone help with a solution to this problem?

Best
