Monitor the status of conversations with DDE/SuiteLink clients

InTouch WindowViewer supports built-in topic names, called DDEStatus and IOStatus, that can be used to monitor the status of specific Communication Driver conversations.

For example, assume that WindowViewer (VIEW) is communicating through Gateway Communication Driver with a data source with the topic name ArchestrA. The discrete items, DDEStatus and IOStatus, are set to:

• 0 (zero) when the conversation between Gateway Communication Driver and InTouch View fails.

• 1 (one) when the conversation between Gateway Communication Driver and InTouch View is successful.

  Note: These items represent the status of communication between the client and Gateway Communication Driver.
