Alternatively you could use 'getpars'. It does go to the CP directly, but with nothing near the nodebus traffic of 'omget', etc. For example: (the following would be on one line) /opt/fox/bin/tools/getpars -UCP0001 -tAIN mCMPNM:%-12.12s -mHAL:%8.2f -mLAL:%8.3f -n That would retrieve the high and low limits from all AIN blocks. With this, I think up to 40 parameters can be listed per execution of 'getpars'. If you dont specify '-t', then a line is printed for every block, and where the parameter does not exist for a block, the string 'N/A' is inserted. Also, the form is much more directly like a report.
