====Script Execution Example Page 4====

In the previous section, we found that the command **'TE101' ASSET** would result in the stack being in the following state...

^Stack^Code^
| AssetList [ { id: 203, name: "Temperature Sensor #1", ern: "TE101" } ] | |

Here, we are going to learn to do more.

There are several commands that work with asset lists, so we can use those commands to look further into our data.

For example, the **VALUES** command will convert an [[asset list|asset list]]  and a [[property list|property list]] into a single list of [[point list|points]], which we need to be able to read property values. 

So to go from an asset name and a property name to the actual //value// of the property, we will need to...

   - Find the asset by name,
   - Find the property by name, and
   - Combine these to form a list of points.

===Finding the Asset===

We've already done the first step in our example - **'TE101' ASSET** gave us information about the asset.

===Finding the Property===

Next, we do a very similar thing to how we found the asset, using the **PROPERTY** command.

**'Stove Temperature' PROPERTY** will give us a [[property list]] that contains the stove temperature.

With the full command **'TE101' ASSET 'Stove Temperature' PROPERTY**, we get the following remaining on the stack...

^Stack^Code^
| AssetList [ { id: 203, name: "Temperature Sensor #1", ern: "TE101" } ] | |
| PropertyList [ { id: 22, name: "Temperature - Stove" } ] | |

===Combining the Two===

Finally, we can use the **POINTS** command to convert these into a single list of points. This command eats //two// items off the stack (the list of assets and list of properties), then combines them to form a list of valid points.

The final output of **'TE101' ASSET 'Stove Temperature' PROPERTY VALUES** is...

^Stack^Code^
| PointList [ { assetid: 203, sourceid: 203, assetname: "Temperature Sensor #1", propertyid: 22, propertyname: "Temperature - Stove" , ern: "TE101", value: "23.57 Deg C", rawvalue: 22.57 } ] | |

Telling us that the current temperature of Temperature Sensor #1 is 23.57 Deg C.
