To add a new MTBF object to the toolbox you can use this line of FlexScript

treenode table = applicationcommand("addmtbfmttr");

If you want to configure the tool at all it gets a little more tricky. We don't currently have a nice API for configuring the MTBF, although we are hoping to add one down the road. You can still do everything through FlexScript, but nothings documented or very discoverable at the moment.

If you want to add new members to the tool you would use code like this:

treenode obj = model().find("Processor1");
treenode members = getvarnode(table, "members");
treenode timetables = getvarnode(obj,"timetables");

createcoupling(members, timetables);
members.last.name = obj.name;
timetables.last.name = table.name;

If there are any other things you want to configure through code we can help you find the needed code.

Thanks,

A follow up question :

treenode table = applicationcommand("addmtbfmttr");

opens up the pop up window. How do I close it using flex script?

Add a 1 as a second parameter if you don't want the properties window to open:

applicationcommand("addmtbfmttr", 1)

The code to add the coupling gives me an error on the last two lines

exception: FlexScript exception: Property "last" accessed on invalid node. at MODEL:/Tools/UserCommands/addBreakDowns/code

exception: FlexScript exception: Property "last" accessed on invalid node. at MODEL:/Tools/UserCommands/addBreakDowns/code

exception: FlexScript exception: Property "last" accessed on invalid node. at MODEL:/Tools/UserCommands/addBreakDowns/code

exception: FlexScript exception: Property "name" accessed on invalid node. at MODEL:/Tools/UserCommands/addBreakDowns/code

how do I resolve this?
