Can you make that record to be mbbo instead?
Usually, mbbi is for an enum coming from a device in the field.
Use mbbo to configure an enum from the user interface.

I am trying to toggle the value of an mbbi record in a BOY (embedded) action script.

The following simple code works for an ao record but not for an mbbi. The symptoms are that pv.setValue executes without error but does not change the value of the PV.

any ideas?

Thanks,

from org.csstudio.opibuilder.scriptUtil import PVUtil
from org.eclipse.jface.dialogs import MessageDialog

pv = widget.getPV()
val = PVUtil.getLong(pv)

MessageDialog.openInformation(None, "info", "pv value is %s" % val)

if val == 3:
     pv.setValue(1)
elif val == 1:
     pv.setValue(3)
else:
     MessageDialog.openInformation(None, "Error", "no match")
