How to get updated PV value in script

[Amien Crombie]

Hi Xihui

If you maybe can help me with script below...

Amien

# This is my Python script file called 'setOffsets.py'

from org.csstudio.opibuilder.scriptUtil import PVUtil, ScriptUtil

from java.lang import Thread, Runnable

from org.eclipse.jface.dialogs import MessageDialog

# I have 10 PV's nl pvs[0] = my RAW value, pvs[1] my RANGE value

# then I have pvs[2]..pvs[9] for my 8 OffsetValues

# I have enabled 1 trigger on pvs[1] = my RANGE

# In short I'm saving my offsets for each RANGE

value = PVUtil.getLong(pvs[0])     #  get value of RAWValue

irange = PVUtil.getLong(pvs[1])    #  get value of RANGE

ty=display.getWidget("ty")

tz=display.getWidget("tz")

tp=display.getWidget("tp")

ty.setPropertyValue("text",value)   # my problem here !!!  value not updated with RANGE change. It only changes with the next RANGE trigger

tp.setPropertyValue("text",irange)  # the irange change as RANGE changes normally

t = irange + 1

tz.setPropertyValue("text",t)

# here I need to update the pvs[range+1] with the RAWvalue

pvs[t].setValue(value)             

# the value is the previous RANGE'value. I have a test whereby RANGE 1 returns 120 and RANGE 2 returns 720

# but when I'm on RANGE 1, i get the value 720 and

# on RANGE 2 I get 120

# so it looks like my 'value' is not current updated until I change to next range
