Calcout record

[Graham Waters <Graham.Waters@triumf.ca>]

I am trying to understand details of the calcout record.
As distributed it does not appear to have any devise support including
"Soft Channel". I added a devise support entry table in the usual way
and added the following to the appropriate dbd file:
device(calcout,CONSTANT,devCalcoutSoft,"Soft Channel")

This works fine except nothing in my entry table ever gets called.
All it seems to require is the "Soft Channel" entry.

What I am really trying to do in the long run is add device support.
Is this possible?

Thanks
Graham.
