DCode

Covers Engine 2.0.0

promptNumerical

Display a numerical ARGUS prompt and return its response. In a timeline bucket, suspends only that bucket until the response arrives; the mission clock and other due buckets continue. Other execution contexts wait on their invoking thread.

Syntax

promptNumerical(title, description, channels?, resolution?, auto_acknowledge?, system?, subsystem?)

Available in

  • File scope
  • Executable DCode bodies

Native C++

Native C++ calls this function through the engine host. It can allocate or block; review use in a control callback.

Rules

  • Arguments are positional. Firing has no automatic timeout; answering the prompt or releasing the hold ends its firing and wait.

Example

promptNumerical("title", "description", [], "", 0)

Inputs

  • title (string): ARGUS title
  • description (string): ARGUS body text
  • channels (array<string|array>): ARGUS graph specification. One graph: [“|temperature|@1”, “>100@1”]. Multiple stacked graphs: [[“|temperature|@1”], [“|pressure|@1”, “=50@2”]]. Commas add series, nested arrays add graphs, and @1 through @5 selects a series or overlay Y axis. Series may be |channel|, >value, >=value, <value, <=value, or =value.
  • resolution (string): Recommended operator action
  • auto_acknowledge (integer seconds): Seconds before visual acknowledgement; zero disables it
  • system (string): ARGUS system grouping
  • subsystem (string): ARGUS subsystem grouping

Outputs

  • response (number): Numeric operator response
