I could be wrong, but here is my guess.
For a component parameter x with direction=in,
after the component's renderComponent is exceuted,
the parameter x is reset to its default value.
Please see p225 to 228 in TIA for more details.
The following might be a quick fix.
In your component, create an instance varaible
copyOfX.
In the method renderComponent, set copyOfX to x.
In the page class, access copyOfX instead of x.
