Definition

Changing parameter of the function module that is allocated to the process instruction.

Use

In the function call, the value of a variable is passed on to changing parameters and the parameters return a value to the PI sheet after the function has been carried out.

The following applies to the function call:

  • A value must be passed on to required changing parameters.
  • Changing parameters for which a default value has been defined in the function module are automatically marked as optional parameters. The default value is used if no other value is passed on in the function call.

When the function has been carried out, the changed parameter value is transferred to the same variable from which the parameter value was obtained during the function call. Thus if you do not allocate a variable to an optional parameter, the value cannot be transferred to the PI sheet.

Procedure

Specify how the parameter value is processed for the following changing parameters:

  • For all required parameters
  • For optional parameters if you do not want to use the default value and transfer the changed parameter value to the PI sheet after carrying out the function.
