  • 1.  Responses to OGP_GET_PARAM and OGP_GET_DESCRIPTOR of STRING ARRAY types

    I have defined a 5 elements array to be STRING_ARRAY type, The value does fit into the 260 payload limit. What should the format of response to the OGP_GET_PARAM and OGP_GET_DESCRIPTOR look like if I do not want to use external objects. This string_array type is used in the ogScript to populate a dropdown menu

    Is you device a DashBoard Connect device or an openGear device? That is, does it live in an openGear Frame and use the CAN Bus to communicate?

    If it is openGear, the only way around the limit is to use external objects (note: these can be used for parameter constraints, not parameter values).
    If it is DashBoard Connect, set the overall value length byte (the one that would normally provide the length of all elements of the array combined) to 0.
