Issue
Is there any way I can transfer a value between 2 LUA programs without using a BV or AV?
Example:
A Lua program (PG1) is created to turn on lighting, a variable called LightOn is created but other Lua programs PG2, PG3, PG4 cannot reference the "LightOn" variable.
Is there any way a variable from one Lua program can be accessed from another Lua program?
Product Line
EcoStruxure Building Expert
Environment
- SmartStruxure Lite
- Lua programming
Cause
Each PG script has its own dedicated environment, which basically means variable names cannot be shared between scripts. The only things that can be referenced are actual objects (AV, BV, etc.)
Resolution
An AV or BV object will need to be created within the EcoStruxure Building Expert controller to store the value and make it available for other programs to read. For example a BV1 could be created and read from or written to by multiple Lua programs by referencing ME.BV1
