1) My first problem is how to display a pv value that multiplied by 1E6;

Ideally, you add a calc record to the IOC to create your scaled PV.

Then you can just display the PV “as is”.

I have tried Text Update widget in CSS Boy opi and write a EmbeddedScript for the widget which is as follows:

import Package(Packages.org.csstudio.opibuilder.scriptUtil);

var pv0=PVUtil.getDouble(pvs[0]);

widget.setPropertyValue=("pv_value",pv0=pv0*1E6);

The Text Update widget displays the value of the PV.

If you have a script that also updates the value of the widget, they both fight each other.

Use a Label widget, then update its text:

var pv0=PVUtil.getDouble(pvs[0]);

widget.setPropertyValue=(“text", “The scaled value is %g” % pv0*1E6);

Ideally, though, avoid the script and just create a proper PV in the first place.

2 ) My second question:

In order to display the unit, I place a Label widget and set its Text as "Sv/h" and I hope the Text changed to "uSv/h" correspond to the pv value that multiplied by 1E6.

How is the text supposed to change? Hope is not a good strategy for this case.

You can again attach a script to the Label widget that sets the label’s “text” property based on the value of some PV.

Ideally, though, avoid the script and create a proper PV in the first place:

record(calc, “scaled_value")

{

  field(INPA, “that_original_value CP”)

  field(CALC, “A*1E6”)

  field(EGU, "uSv/h”)

}

==> Now you just add a Text Update widget, enter the “scaled_value” as a PV name, done.
