The
Status
signal is sent multiple times during the check mail process. The series
of unsigned 16-bit values are intended as input to an analog gauge display —
which might be on a touchscreen page or on a control system’s front panel.
The signal is sent first with a value of 0 (empty gauge); followed by a number of
increments, all equal in size. The final increment is the maximum value (2
16
- 1 =
65,535) which fills the gauge. The number of increments equals the number of
messages resident on the host. The server checks the IN box database table for
each message ID and downloads that message when missing from the table.
