Access the Parameters of a SequenceCall via API

Question

I would like to access several characteristics, like name and value, of the parameter(s) of a SequenceCall via the TestStand API,
but it didn't work.
First I get the object reference of the Class SequenceCallParameters via Class SequenceCallModule.Parameters. Now I
can determine the correct number of parameters via SequenceCallParameters.Count. Cause that works, I think I am on
the right way. To access the property object of a specific parameter, I get the object reference via SequenceCallParameter.Item and
the Method AsPropertyObject of the Class SequenceCallParameter.
I thougth with this reference I could access the properties of the parameter via the PropertyObjectClass, but I didn't get the correct information resp. I didn't know at which property the objectReference really points to.
I add an example sequence. I would get the information from the Sequencecall via the PreStepCallback.
I hope someone has an idea. Thank you in advance.
Regards Carsten

CKone,
You can use the API to access the parameter properties.
Once you get the parameter item you can treat that object as a SequenceCallParamer object.
The SequenceCallParameter object contains several of the properties you were  trying to access:
SequenceCallParameter
Use objects from the SequenceCallParameter class to configure and obtain SequenceCallParameter-specific information for an item in the SequenceCallParameters collection class.
Properties
Name (Read Only)
PassByReference (Read Only)
Type (Read Only)
UseDefaultValue
UserData (Read Only)
ValidEvaluationTypes (Read Only)
ValueExpr
I modified your sequence file to use this object.
Hope it helps.
