Good Morning All,
Looking for some advice from any of you who use Parameter Connections in Studio5K.
I'm starting to write modular code for each device and wrapping it inside a Program, instead of a Routine or AOI. With that, I'd like to use the program's input parameter and output parameter options. I noticed that I can't alias a program's input parameter to a raw input like "Local:1:I.Pt00.Data", but I can make a connection to it. (See attached .png)
What's the difference?
What I'd like to do is let my program function similarly to an AOI, where an AOI's input parameters are exposed, and the input parameter expects a tag to be bound to it.
Is a parameter connection the method for achieving this?
Thanks for your input!
