Are there any functions for getting or setting a checkbox's value?

Thanks.

I have a question/problem with the AS3.Setcheckboxstatus() function.

My macro runs AS3.Setcheckboxstatus(true,56); to change the active low checkbox on the probe. I can see that the check box is changed when the macro is finished, but the probe is still behaving as if the checkbox is not checked. I have to apply the settings to make it work. Should I be using callbutton to press the Apply settings button, or should Setcheckboxstatus be working without this.

The reason for this is a have a couple of different probing methods and one is NO (Normally Open) and the other is NC (Normally Closed). I need my macro to switch between the two.

Yes, you have to call the Apply settings button to validate the new settings.
There are 2 probe inputs in our ethernet controllers for exactly this purpose, because one probe can be NO and the other NC. This function does not fit in the UC100 unfortunately, it only has one probe input, but your workaround with the macro you described should work.

Thanks. It does work fine. I have two different probes what I have attached to simple RCA plugs. My macro will pop up a message box saying which probe to connect and then changes the Active low to suit that probe. It is working great.
