We found the answer to our problem. We have types such as

type x is range 1..5;

We then make records including these types. In the rep specs, we define
them to be 32 bits. Apparently, GNAT ignores the rep spec when doing
the 'Write, so we are not sending the correct number of bits. The fix
is:

type x is range 1..5;
for x'size use 32;

This fixes our problem.

Thanks very much for your help.
