I'm currently trying to calculate some values and send them out on the bus.
For the calculating part, I'm using a global pem script, in which I change the required signals via their .Value property.
For sending, I need to use the transmit window in which I have set up the required singals to be sent ...

Our setup is as follows:
We have a pump motor controlled over CAN.
I can set the RPM over CAN ("Setpoint_RPM") and it reports back its actual RPM ("ActualPumpRPM").
I'm changing the RPM signal value via an instrument panel button.
The signal is set to be sent on the bus with a cycle time of 50ms ...

Thank you, this works as intended.

Thanks, that's what I ended up doing.

May I recommend this as a feature?
Having a plot settings file separate to the plotted data would make versioning possible as well as sharing the settings easier.

I'd like to have my .plt files backed up in our versioning system so that I don't have to set them up for every session.
However it seems that any data that gets plotted is saved to this file as well, which a) leads to the file beding modified after every session and b) makes the file become quite ...

Please note that any Multiplexer-Signal will also be part of the Signals Collection, so if you just wanna access the Signal, you can use the collection, change the value and this change will automatically trigger a transmission

Could you elaborate further on this?
I'm currently ...

Thanks, I received the example.
It's not quite what I was looking for since it doesn't touch the issue of the Instrument Panel signal reference.
For example, I apply the symbol file 01, create an Instrument Panel and add some object that uses the signal PotiSignal.
Now if I use the script to apply ...

Is it possible to have instrument panel elements refer to a signal only by its name or CAN-ID, ignoring the name of the DBC file they're in?
We have regularly changing DBC names, so every time this happens I have to go through all panel elements and change their signal to the new DBC name.

The option to display search results as "Topics" instead of "Posts" doesn't seem to be working.
When I choose this option, there's zero search results while the "Posts" option lists the proper results.

Way to reproduce (any search term works):
- Go to "advanced search"
- Enter "script" into keyword ...

Thanks, this works.
I'll add that one has to use the complete name of the function including underscores (somewhere in the forum or documentation it was suggested that one has to remove the underscores).
