Dear all, Thanks for the help.I am attempting to switch to 3.16 because I thought I read somewhere, though I don't recall where, that the string length limit is eliminated here. With asyn/streamdevice, I'm attempting to read a long string from an Oxford Instruments Mercury iTC. Is
the limit removed in 3.15?In answer to Mark's original question, with 3.16.0.1 (which I'll not use, but it may be useful information), I did not see any asyn commands listed when I typed help at the iocsh prompt, and I did include asyn.dbd.
Thanks again, Pierrick On 04/14/2017 03:16 PM, J. Lewis Muir wrote:
