CimView Scripts

Overview

Guidelines

Overview

CimView uses Basic scripts, which can, among many other things, use the runtime value of a point.

When you use point values within scripts, the values correspond to the active measurement system. Therefore, if you compare or manipulate values with other values that are constant, you will most likely run into trouble if you switch active measurement systems. This is because your constant numbers will stay the same, but the point values will most likely change due to unit equivalence.

Guidelines

You have to take into consideration that the point values will vary depending on the active measurement system. Therefore, make sure that values in the script are all relative; conversely, that there are no absolute values in the script.
