Using parameters in a script

[GiovanniVolpe]

Hello everyone!

This is my Mimic:

This is my script (called by pick action):

Debug.....

Indeed: "Mimic.Parameters.Target" Object needed

Where am I going wrong?

Your Pictures are not showing. I would try different file formats or maybe lower resolution.

[GiovanniVolpe]

I'm so sorry.

I'll try again: my Mimic

My code

[geoffpatton]

Interestingly your other picture are now showing.

I believe you need to put the "Mimic.Parameters.Target.FullName" in Quotes.

If it helps here is an example of where I have used FindObject with GetOPCValue. I think GetOPCValue is used so the code can work from a instance of a template.

Function SetPump2AlarmReset()
Dim objCTLcheck
Dim iResponse

Set objCTLcheck = Server.FindObject(Server.GetOPCValue("..IO.Config.Setpoints.Pump 2 Alarm Reset.FullName"))
If objCTLcheck.CheckAccess("CTL") = True Then
Server.SetOPCValue "..IO.Config.Setpoints.Pump 2 Alarm Reset.CurrentValue", 0
Else
iResponse = MsgBox("You do not have Control Privileges to Control " + Server.GetOPCValue("..Name") + "." , vbQuestion + vbOKCancel + vbDefaultButton2, "Station Control")
End If
End Function

I am not sure you are trying to get a database Object information though since I do not see anything in your database tree called Mimic.

I would like to access the parameters defined for MIMIC as shown in this example

The example script states:

Set test = Mimic.Parameters
something = test.Point.CurrentValue

That parameter is now in your variable 'something'.
