EPICS - Record Processing

Record Processing

Records in EPICS must have a designated scan time, otherwise they are automatically set as passive. A passive record will never process (unless its PROC field is written to). Mostly records are set to process on a periodic scan (such every 0.1 second).

Alternately records may be set to process only on events.

Famous quotes containing the word record:

    No record ... can ... name the women of talent who were so submerged by child- bearing and its duties, and by “general housework,” that they had to leave their poems and stories all unwritten.
    Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)
