    Hi ! There is change in RW7.2, it's now dnum. Use conversion.
    Have a look in 7.2 release notes - it's described there.

    Edit: Best way to solve it is to use GOutput function to get num value out from group signal.

    Actually, as long as comparison is to dnum value no conversion (GOutputToDnum) is needed:
