How to handle the EPICS .PROC field? #301

Closed prjemian closed 2 months ago

prjemian commented 2 months ago

This question comes up. Since the .PROC field already has a value of 1, repeatedly setting it to the same value (once each time the record is to be processed) could produce timeouts from the status object is we use bps.mv() in a plan.

In addition to providing guidance how to handle the .PROC field, this is a simple example of a custom ophyd Device (#42).

We worked through this in Office Hours last week.
