The Data Output block is obsolete, because you can connect variables and parameters directly to the output of any block. For information on how to do this, see "Using Variables and Parameters".
Use this block only when you cannot attach a data path directly to the target
variable or parameter. For example, if the variable or parameter is an attribute of
an object or if you want variables and parameters to appear on a separate workspace, use the Data Output block.
Data-server attribute in the table of the variable or parameter to
inference engine, NOL uses the G2 conclude action to change values locally
within NOL. When you set the Data-server attribute to anything other than
inference engine, however, NOL uses the G2 set action to change values in the
external system outside of G2.
Note: You can set Target Variable to an expression that evaluates to a G2 variable
or parameter. For more information, see "Evaluating Expressions in
Attributes".
The "Entry Points" perform the opposite action of the Data Output block: they pass information from G2 parameters and variables into NOL diagrams.
