Meaning of "ParamP" in SFD_ProcessChannel -function (DAC: Script-block")

[bohm]

I don't understand the meaning of the parameter "ParamP" in SFD_ProcessChannel -function at all. Every time the SFD_ProcessChannel -function is called, ParamP is emty, is't it ?
Could everybody show me an example with ParamP is not empty ?

SFD_ProcessChannel( ChannelNumberP, InputListV, ParamP, DataP, ErrorP )

Its the value of the parameter you may enter individually for every configured channel in the Script DAC driver block in DIAdem.
The variable is not a vector variable - even though you can have several channels and different parameters.

This is because the ProcessChannels function is called once for every configured channel (and tact). ChannelNumberP shows you the index of the channel that is currently processed. So, if ChannelNumberP =1 ParamP contains the parameter of the first configured channel, if ChannelNumberP =2 ParamP contains the parameter of the second channel. (Same as with DataP).

Thanks, I've got it.
