Summary:

This article give more details about error message 5002
Details:

The error message “5002 : Variable unknown (x) from station y Manager User Interface Function Recipe” appears when a wrong value in a DDE text variable is used in a recipe.

The recipe is set with a DDE text variable to be copied to another variable.

If the value of the DDE text variable contains the character “,” it is interpreted like a variable name separator by PcVue for DDE and the message appears.

The x in the message is the value in the DDE text variable value just after the character “,”

To fix the problem the character “,” must not be used in a DDE text variable used for a recipe copy.
