events to confirm that the

values of your monitor points

have been successfully sent.
This approach may be useful

if you are updating a large

number of monitor points at

once, and do not want to wait

for a completion code to

return after each update

before moving to the next

one.
Setting this property to True

therefore may be useful

when writing to the values of

large numbers of data points

with the Write method

because it reduces the time

required to update the

values on the network.

FALSE. OpenLNS waits for the

completion code to return

after it sends each value

before returning from the

method, as with LNS

versions prior to LNS 3.20.
Other client applications will

be able to successfully

update the monitor point

while your application is

waiting for the completion

code.

If this property is set to

False and no completion code

is returned after a message

is sent, this indicates that

LNS failed to update the

monitor point. In this case,

the DS, #411

lcaErrLnsDsWriteFailed

exception will be thrown

before LNS proceeds to the

next update message.
OpenLNS will not return

any events confirming that

the value has been updated

when the property is set to

False.
This is the default.

Data Type

Boolean.
