Editing individual channel points from a script

[DTS_PBO]

Good morning. 

Is there a way to edit individual cell values within a channel but from a script? I know it's possible from the view tab in a table, editing an individual cell but I'd like to do it from a script to replace outliers with an average of the two points either side.

I've got a python script working which finds the outliers and returns their cell reference within the channel, and calculated the average of the two points either side, but I can't find a way of then replacing the required cell value.

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks

Hi DTS_PBO,

If you have a channel variable you can simply use the index to change the value in the row of that index. Example:

oChn = dd.Data.Root.ChannelGroups(1).Channels("MyChannel")
oChn[3] = 100

We also ship two examples with similar content:

"Searching for Outliers with the ChnEvent Function"
"Searching for Outliers with the Peak Search Function"

many thanks, looks like I was just making a simple mistake of using round brackets instead of square!
