salmanwaheed

Hi,
I am trying to get input string from text-input button, I am trying below code just to check if any string is triggering, I have placed some code to check in Telnet. but so far unable to see anything in telnet console.

DEFINE_EVENT

DATA_EVENT[dvTP]{
STRING:

SEND_STRING 0,'STRING';
}
}

I created button in touch panel and change input text in properties, now on touch panel I can enter any value, but I cannot receive this text string in main program, I have put my code above I am using in processor.

Are you issuing the ^BSM command?

^BSM
Button Submit Text Command - This command causes the text areas to send their text as strings to the NetLinx Master.
Syntax:
"'^BSM-'"
Variable:
address range: Address codes of buttons to affect. A '.' between addresses includes the range, and & between addresses includes each address.
Example:
SEND_COMMAND Panel,"'^BSM-500'"
Returns a String of format "'-'".
The string is returned on the port a ^BIT command was received on, or if that has not occurred, is sent on the address port.

If a "name" is applied to the text input this will be applied as a standard header to the string with the text input as the parameter (header-parameter)

The submit button calls the ^BSM in code

button_event[dvTP_MEET, BTN_MEET_CONFIRM]
{
    push:
    {
    send_command button.input.device,"'^BSM-',itoa(TXT_MEET_SUBJECT),'&',itoa(TXT_MEET_TIME)"; // Returns strings with
    }
}

data_event[dvTP_MEET]
{
    string:
    {
    stack_var iCmd[DUET_MAX_CMD_LEN], iHeader[DUET_MAX_HDR_LEN], iParam[DUET_MAX_PARAM_LEN];
    local_var volatile char iSubject[100];
    local_var volatile integer iTime;

    iCmd = data.text;
    iHeader = DuetParseCmdHeader(iCmd);
    iParam = DuetParseCmdParam(iCmd);

    switch(iHeader)
    {
        case 'SUBJECT':
        {
        iSubject = iParam;
        }
        case 'TIME':
        {
        iTime = atoi(iParam);
        }
    }

    cancel_wait 'Create Meeting Debounce'
    wait 1 'Create Meeting Debounce'
    {
//  DEFINE_FUNCTION CHAR RmsBookingCreate(CHAR startDate[],
//                                        CHAR startTime[],
//                                        INTEGER durationMinutes,
//                                        CHAR subject[],
//                                        CHAR messageBody[],
//                                        LONG locationId)
        if(length_string(iSubject) && iTime) 
        {
        RmsBookingCreate(LDATE, TIME, iTime, iSubject, 'Adhoc meeting request', 0);
        }
    }   

    }
