4.8 Communication screen
The right side of the main window shows the communication between the computer and the development kit.
Each time the user sends a command, it appears in the screen, followed by the reply of the DVK90121.
The user can specify the number of displayed lines in the “Lines to show” window. It was set up to make sure
the most recent command or reply are displayed without scrolling. Moreover, it is possible to erase the screen
by pushing on the “Clear” button.

The content of the screen can be automatically written to a file. To do this, the file name must be specified
and the index “Save log to” must be selected.
File name can directly be specified by the user in the “Write to file” editor box or an existing file can be
opened by using “Open file” button.
The program continiously communicates with the reader to test its presence, but these internal commands
are filtered. It is possible to disable the filter with “Disable filter” option, and thus see all communications
between the computer and DVK90121 device.
