5.6 DDE dynamic data exchange
DDE link
Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) is a standard inter-application communication protocol built into
Microsoft Windows operating systems and supported by many applications that run under Windows.
DDE takes data from one application and gives it to another application. It allows Windows programs that
support DDE to exchange data between themselves.
Data from the Observer II software can be exchanged with
Excel
on DDE link.
Please note that it is not possible to exchange data directly from the recorder to third party applications
like Excel. Once Observer II software is installed with real timer viewer and configured properly in PC,
then it is possible to exchange data between Observer software and Excel using DDE link.
Open real time viewer from start – programs – Observer II – Real-time viewer
Project – create DDE link in excel
Specify the path and file name as follows.
By default the file name will start with DDE and the project name with underscore in between to avoid
confusion in naming the file. Save the file name in PC at selected path as above to proceed further. For
example, if desktop is selected in the path, then the file should be available in the desktop. Please check
up the desk top for the excel file.
