Hello,
On page 32 of the CANgate users manual. There is a sentence (listed below) about the options for the response to a poll command.
"These commands will normally send a poll command (RP memslot) then parse the response
and either log it directly or assign it to a channel variable (CV)."

In the past I have frequently used the option of logging the response directly. This has worked well, and from the example shown not too hard to understand with my limited programming knowledge.
However I would like to assign the response to a CV, so I can use it as an alarm or trigger.

Is it possible to get more detail on how this command should be written so response is assigned to a CV rather than logged directly?

Kind Regards

Hi Shawry,

Yes it is possible to assign channel variable to capture that return value from RP poll command.
If you see the example:

1SERIAL("\e{RP 1^M}%f","EngSpd~RPM" )

%f is parsing the response from RP 1 result and set a label + unit directly.
You may change this into

1SERIAL("\e{RP 1^M}%f[1CV]" )

which save the value to 1CV

Best regards,
