CH (Connect Handle)
[General]
DESCRIPTION:
The CH command is used to associate master and slave controllers in a distributed control system. The
master controller must associate one Ethernet handle for sending commands to each slave, and one Ethernet
handle for receiving status information from each slave. Note that these handles must first be opened before
assigning them with this command, see the command IH. This command is obsolete. Please use the HC
command instead.
ARGUMENTS: CHx=h1,h2 where
x is X, Y, Z, W or A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H.
h1 is the handle (character) to be used to send commands to the slave controller.
h2 is the handle (character) to be used for receiving status from the slave controller.
