<div class="elementToProof"><span style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">the EPICS_CA_MAX_ARRAY_BYTES does not change the array size but changes the upper limit.
It is easy to check what the actual array lengths of the PVs on the PXI CA-server are once it is running, it is off according to the GUI. Just let me know when you turn it on. </span></div>
