'global_send' / How can I 'getValue() ?

[Chazrox]

I need to get this value from my ScriptNode 'global_send' cable within a script in onInit.

// I need to be able to:

Slot.DelayLeft.getValue();

// How do I do this? 

This is what i've been trying so far...

const var globalRouting = Engine.getGlobalRoutingManager();
const var SlotFxDelayLeft = globalRouting.getCable("Slot.DelayLeft");
Console.print(SlotFxDelayLeft.getValue());

const var delayTimer = Engine.createTimerObject();

delayTimer.setTimerCallback(function()
{
	if (SlotFxDelayLeft.getValue() == 1.0);
	{
		//Console.print("ONNNN");
	}
	
});
delayTimer.startTimer(20);

Im trying to get an LED animation to respond to the delay signals so I need to get the signal value and this was how I thought to do it. You can let me know if this is not a good approach.

Thanks!

@Chazrox you don't need to poll the value with a timer, just attach a asynchronous callback to the cable and it will do the same thing.

@Chazrox Try a Global Cable instead! There's a few posts on this, I know I shared one very recently which I believe will answer your question.

@Christoph-Hart I found one of your examples in docs, I've been trying this but getting an error I cant figure out.

const var globalRouting = Engine.getGlobalRoutingManager();
const var SlotFxDelayLeft = globalRouting.getCable("Slot.DelayLeft");
Console.print(SlotFxDelayLeft.getValue());


// Register the callback
SlotFxDelayLeft.registerDataCallback(function(data)
{
	Console.print("DATA: " + trace(data));
});

UPDATE:

I figured it out...

const var globalRouting = Engine.getGlobalRoutingManager();
const var SlotFxDelayLeft = globalRouting.getCable("Slot.DelayLeft");
Console.print(SlotFxDelayLeft.getValue());


// Register the callback
SlotFxDelayLeft.registerCallback(function(value)
{
	Console.print(value);
}, AsyncNotification);

// Values print =)

@Christoph-Hart @HISEnberg Thank You!
