Yes, through environment variables.
Here's an example from the Tektronix TDS3000/5000 support module:
===================================================================
#!../../bin/solaris-sparc/scopetest
< envPaths
< envParams
#

# Site-specific configuration

#

epicsEnvSet(FAMILY, "$(TDS_FAMILY=3000)") # Choose scope family
(3000 or 5000)

epicsEnvSet(ETHER, "$(TDS_ETHERNET=10.0.0.1)") # Choose scope ethernet
address

epicsEnvSet(SCOPE, "$(TDS_SCOPE=scopeTest:)") # Choose scope ethernet
address

.

.

.

.

## Set up IOC/hardware links -- Direct network connection

#vxi11Configure("L0", "$(ETHER)", 0, 0.0, "inst0", 0)

.

.

.

dbLoadRecords("db/TDSxxxx.vdb","scope=$
(SCOPE),L=0,A=3,ASG=RF1CTL,Name=RF1-HV,FAMILY=$(FAMILY)")

.

.

.

=====================================================================
If the environment variable is set, the IOC shell uses that value.
Otherwise a default value is used.
For example, to use a different ethernet address:
ETHER=192.168.1.123 ../../bin/solaris-sparc/scopetest st.cmd

Hi,
I wonder if it is possible to give some parameters to the startup
script ?

Here is an exemple of what I'd like to do :

>myioccore myst.cmd <parameter1> ... <parameterN>
