Note that Soft Channel device support resets the target position (VAL/DVAL/RVAL)
to the actual position (RBV/DRBV/RRBV) the first time, and only the first time,
that the PV pointed to by RDBL is posted. Hence, Soft Channel device support
requires that the RDBL PV have a valid value the first time it is posted.&nbsp; <BR>
