ScanServer User's Guide

Start a Transaction

DDE transactions are started via the Start Transaction item in the DDE menu.
Several types of transactions are supported. The “Advise” type is commonly used to
establish a “Hot Link” with the ScanServer. Alternately the “Request” type may be
used to establish a “Warn Link” with the server.

Note: ScanServer does not support Execute type transactions.

Poke a Value

The DDE client supports sending data to the ScanServer via the Poke type
transaction. Using this type of transaction, a user may set an output bit on an
instrument.
