ComStopBits
Valid values: 1, 2
Definition: This is a serial port setting and must match the base station setting. WDterm may allow
other settings but those listed here are the only ones compatible with current version
base stations.
Quiet
Valid values: True, False
Definition: If
Quiet
is set to True then any status and error message generated by WDterm will be
suppressed.
Methods – ActiveX Object
Methods are commands that you issue to the WDterm control. All of the "
Inputxxx
" commands cause the
terminal to wait for operator input.
Note that your development environment may show more available methods for the WDterm control than
are listed here. This is normal. You may ignore methods you see that are not listed here.
Important: When your application starts up, the serial port is "closed". You must call
OpenDevice
before other
method calls will work.
Except for the
ReInitAll
method, all methods use the
ActiveTerminal
property to identify the terminal to use.
OpenDevice
Function: Opens the communications (serial) port. This must be called before any of the methods
described below. Make sure to set all Properties as desired before calling this method
(except
ActiveTerminal
or
Quiet
).
CloseDevice
Function: Closes the communications (serial) port. This must be called before changing any of the
Property settings (except
ActiveTerminal
or
Quiet
). When your application starts up, the
serial port is "closed". You must call
OpenDevice
before other method calls will work.
InputAny
Parameters: line, position, prompt, shifted, timestamped
InputAnyColor (15-line terminal only)
Parameters: line, position, prompt, shifted, timestamped,FG,BG
Function: This instructs the
ActiveTerminal
to display the prompt at line and position and wait for
data to be entered from either terminal keypad or scanner. If shifted is set to "true", the
terminal will start in shifted mode. Timestamped appends a (hhmmss) prefix to the
returned data.
