The DataViz3Script plug-in invokes a predefined Viz 3 scripting subroutine or function, with the updated value of its defined data field (DataPool variable) or with a DataPool expression as an argument.
In the case of a function, the returned value of the function can be assigned to a DataPool variable.
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.
