Is it possible to access data within the StationGlobals from a custom Operator Interface without a sequence running?

I'm trying to change the Station Globals from a custom interface, however I can't figure out how to get a context to get at those values without a callback from a running execution. Any ideas?

Hi,

You dont say which language but here is an example for the LabVIEW (6.1) Operator Interface.

I use this to detect if a StopOnFail boolean is available and if it is get its value.


Using the Engine Reference, I get a Reference to the StationGlobals properties. I can then use the method Exists() to see if my actual StationGlobal variable exists and if it does call the method GetValBoolean.

Hope this helps

Sorry, I forgot to mention I'm writing CVI. I'll see what I can do with the LabView version.
