I use 'getpars' to retrieve IOM_ID, PNT_NO, LM1_PT, LM2_PT, CO1_PT and CO2_PT for all CP's on our I/A DCS. Only "N/A" was generated for those paramets in the report. In the getpars manual, it is stated that in general, 'getpars' does not support any 'string' parameters. What I try to achieve is to generate a table of block names, types, descriptions and their I/O address like FBM LIB and channel information for all CP's on our DCS. Has anyone tried to generate such table? It will be greatly appreciated if anyone will show me how to dump the data out. Thanks!
