Here is an example from the help:
--------------------------------------------------------------
CCI - commodity channel index
SYNTAX
CCI( periods = 14 )
CCIa( array, periods = 14 )
RETURNS ARRAY
FUNCTION
Calculates the Commodity Channel Index (using periods averaging range ).
Second version (CCIa) accepts input array, so CCI can be applied to array
different than close. (CCIa exists in AFL 2.2+ only (v.4.20+))
EXAMPLE
CCI( 14 )
CCIa( High, 14 );
--------------------------------------------------------------
Here, we see that there is also a second form of this indicator
where the user can pass his own input array to the function.
