Done.
Sorry for the bad suggestion. The parentheses should be necessary.

This looks a little bit strange. First we do a busy loop without any
timeout and then a fixed msleep without reason for the exact duration.
Sorry for the possibly dumb questions:
Is it safe to read PV_V_CONTROL exactly after writing to them? No
sleeping required?
Correct. We're waiting for the value to land, so you just read until it
does.
The reason for my question was the possibility that writing to
PV_V_CONTROL could take some time and reading directly after writing
could return the old value. In such a case the busy loop has no effect.
But if it is not the case here everything is fine :-)
I've pulled in a later change for doing waits with timouts.
How did you come to the 30 milli seconds?
a bit more than a frame. The comment was there to document why the
sleep was there. It looks like in retesting now that it's not required.
Sounds better
Regards
Stefan
