[javascript-dev] Connect existing object to scripted one

Try this:

inlets = 1;
outlets = 0;

var theunpack = 0;
var thedata = this.patcher.getnamed('thedata');

function bang()
{
    if (theunpack)
    {
       this.patcher.remove(theunpack);
    }
    theunpack = this.patcher.newdefault(200, 200, 'unpack', 0, 0);
    this.patcher.connect(thedata, 0, theunpack, 0);
}

Now, if that works, and it should (although I haven't tested it), it  
should be clear what the problem was. What was it?
