Subassembly Composer -- How to ask if a point exists

Using Subassembly Composer, we want to test for daylight. If daylight is not found, out Auxiliary Point will not be created. How do we code a decision that says "If AP1 does not exist...?"

 

TIA,

 

Tim

I know how to use the "ISVALID" but my question is how do I simulate that point being invalid while still in SAC so I can see how my subassembly will behave when that is true (the point does not exist)?

You can disable a target (checkbox). In this case, daylight, you can disable the surface target in SAC and your scenario will be in "IsValid=False".
