+<h2>Preface</h2>
+<p>This document describes the pvAccess Application Program Interface (API).
+The reader is assumed to have a basic understanding of EPICS V4 as described in:</p>
+<a

+</a>
+<p>The pvAccess API is callback based and uses Status to report problem to the
+client, which means that it can be complex to use.
+If your primary interest is client access then, instead of reading this document,
