There are a couple ways to do this. 

Bring up a Constants template and put a set in it. Put 3 longs in it
and give the initial values to be the parameter variables. Then connect the
set to the dims array.

Like:

  Parameter
	Long 1	| xdim
	Long 2 | ydim
	Long 3 | zdim

  Constants
	Set
	  Long 4   | dumx  | xdim
	  Long 5  | dumy  | ydim
	  Long 6  | dumz  | zdim

where {x,y,z}dim are the parameters 
-----

Or you can go to the dims array and make fragments and wire to them
And ignore the warning msg at Parse time about scalar connected to Array.
