Using the Notification/Request Message Block
The following examples show some typical uses of a notification/request message block.
EXAMPLE 1 Used for Notification Only
When the block is configured for notification, a send command is received from a suitable
source, e.g., EX1, for the message (which resides in the terminal) to be displayed. On receipt
at the terminal, the message is terminal acknowledged. Since no data is required to be
entered, the block is acknowledged by cursoring to the message and pressing the Enter key.
By configuring the block to expect an acknowledgement, making its type discrete and
configuring the Maximum Response Time, the message will be displayed until timeout.
