Problem with *VGET

Problem with *VGET

Problem with *VGET

(OP)
Hello,

I have a problem with the command *VGET. I have a SHELL131 model where I put several temperature (TBOT, TE2, TE3, etc...) on nodes. I can use *GET to know the value of TBOT or TE2 for example on my nodes. Example :
*GET,AAA,NODE,13,D,TE2 ------> AAA = TE2 value of node 13

But, if I want know the value of all nodes with this command :
*VGET,name_array,NODE, ,TE2, , , ,
I have this message :
"Some entities requested in the *VGET were undefined."

And, if I use :
AAA = TE2(13)
The result is "AAA = 0" while normally it's equivalent to *GET,AAA,NODE,13,D,TE2

So, someone has had this problem?

Thanks

RE: Problem with *VGET

The "Some entities requested in the *VGET were undefined" message usually occures becsue you have a gap in node numbering. All it is saying is that it looked for a temp at a node that doesnt exist. This would probably go away if you use the NUMCMP command to compress node numbers.

I you issue the *GET,AAA,NODE,13,D,TE2 command, do you get a non-zero value? Fi so, is the node a midside node?
