Subject: Init pv properly
From: Miguel <[email protected]>

Hello,

I would like to create a Pv that at the epics start up does not have any specific value or one forced by me.

For example i would like to have a string that its initial state is not really important (no experience). Like:

record(stringin , "$(user):ExperienceString"){
    info(autosaveFields, "VAL")        #autosave
    field(VAL, "no experience")
    field(DESC, "anotar estados da experiencia")
}
Where ill change this afterwrds manually when it will be important.

The problem is that i would not like it to be instantiated as an undefined pv. Changing the VAL is the most appropriated method? I tought about changin UDF to 0 but did not work.

The same for a integer pv. Wich kind of pv should i use and how should i instantiate it?

Thanks a lot,
MiguelB
