The DataPosition plug-in changes the position of the container according to the received data.

Note: This plug-in is located in: Plugins -> Container plug-ins -> Data

Information: DataPool plug-ins only work properly on a single channel on the same machine.

DataPosition Properties

  • Format: Specifies the format of the incoming data. Format options specify the axis which the data relates to.

  • Incremental change: Defines if the received data is added to the current value of the data field. When set to On the received data is added to the data field. When set to Off the received data replaces the value of the data field.

  • Separate Parameters: Enables additional parameters when set to On, allowing the user to define minimum and maximum values to all parameters separately:

    • X Min/Max: Defines a minimum/maximum value for the received X position of the object.

    • X Position Min/Max: Defines a minimum/maximum Viz value for the received X position of the object.

Note: (Y and Z axis have the same parameters. The parameters are enabled according to the selected format).

Example

If Field Name is VALUE and the format is X, the data sent is VALUE=10.5;. The container moves on the X axis to a position of 10.5.
