Hi all,
To start from the beginning. I’m quite new to EPICS, and I’m experimenting with its basics at the moment,
by trying to set up a softIoc from scratch.
I have an EPICS base of R3.14.12.5 already installed and the host OS is a RedHat linux.
My project structure is as follows:
myFirstIoc/
├──PowerSupplySimu.db
└───st.cmd
When I do softIoc st.cmd the ioc is being initialized and is running, at least it seems like.
In the softioc shell I can list the records found in the PowerSupplySimu.db file.
epics> dbl
PowerSupply1:ReadBack
PowerSupply1:OutputValue
…
But when I open a terminal and trying to get the value of any of these PVs like:
caget PowerSupply1:Readback
I get the following response:
Channel connect timed out: ’PowerSupply1:Readback’ not found.
I was looking for resources on the web but managed to find nothing unfortunately.
I guess I’m overlooking something or some setup is missing, or maybe I’m doing it completely wrong.
So what else do I need to get Channel Access work for me?
Any help would be appreciated!
Yours truly,
