CygNet Scripting Model
CygNet provides libraries for general scripting as well as for accessing and setting data from the various database and current value services. See your system administrator to determine which libraries are available.
The most common environments for CygNet scripting are CygNet Studio for human-machine interface (HMI) building, and the HSS for adding custom script to points. Scripting is not limited to these applications, however. All libraries can be leveraged in Microsoft Visual Basic components, .NET projects, Microsoft Office, Active Server Pages, or any environment that supports COM objects.

As the figure above indicates, both the HSS and CygNet Studio implement native scripting support, although their uses are distinct. The HSS uses a script engine to traverse all HyperPoints and process event code. The CygNet Explorer application also includes a HyperPoint test mode that simulates HyperPoint Script. This mode is independent of the script engine and HSS. CygNet Studio’s script typically relates to individual objects placed on screens.
