Disable standard polling temporarily stops FlowDDE from polling the selected parameters and only the read actions in

this test form (or any client) are performed on the instrument.

4.5.2 Test ProPar

For low level testing purposes, FlowDDE contains the Test Propar form, in

which individual FLOW-BUS messages may be read and written to an

instrument. This form replaces the former DLL test application.

This form can only be opened when the communication is closed by

Communication >> Test PropPar or Shift+F6. Using this form, messages can

be sent at the node/process/parameter level, so even parameters that are

not in the FlowDDE database can be read and/or written.

As soon as the Read or Write button is pressed for the first time, the

communication is opened. When the window is closed, the communication

is closed as well.

ERVICE LOG

In case of problems with your instrument(s) and you need to contact an expert (e.g. Bronkhorst Support), all

parameter values of your instrument can be logged to a file. To create such a service log, click File >> Service log or

Ctrl+L and enter the file name.
