unwanted enumeration keeps coming back

Post by kver » Tue Mar 22, 2016 6:38 am

Using PowerVision Configuration Studio Build 2.8.10366 Part Number 78-33-3154
Murphy PV380

Problem I have is that I have a variable, and allocated 2 enumeration values (see attachment):
Selector value / Description / Display Value
0 / Day / Day
1 / Night / Night

For some reason, I keep getting a 3rd enumeration, with same description and display value as my 2nd enumeration:
2 / Night / Night

Of course, when I click the create button, I get an error, and have to remove this (unwanted) enumeration.
After removing it, I can Create, Load and save without any problems.

After some time, this unwanted enumeration is back again, and I have to remove it again.

Not sure if it is a bug, or if I am doing something wrong.

Thanks
Karel Vermeeren

Hello Karel,

The Day/Night is a system variable belonging to the System and Screen applications. The enumerations for the Day/Night variable is defined by the applications, not the configuration.

If you search for Day/Night, you will see "Reference found on: System\Variable mapped to Day\Night" among the references.

If you go to the Applications tab, for each application shown in the left panel, you can see what variables are controlled by each application. The PowerVision Configuration Studio Application reference manual viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1165 provides a brief description of the actions, variables, events, reserved strings and lists associated with each application.

I know the enumeration for that particular variable is not what I would like either ;) It is that way for backward compatibility.

Thanks Sara.

Clear (I think..)
