This section shows available functions for controlling an attached instrument
via the server. This is to allow basic instrument control in applications where
the AT is being used entirely remotely. The functions available allow a program
to be loaded into an AT, and give the ability to run and stop it.
Variant LoadProgramToAT
(LPCSTR ComPort, LPCSTR ProgName)
“PROGRAM DOES NOT EXIST” Program is not in the Server's program
folder.
“INVALID PROGRAM” Program fails AT test program validation.
“LOADING” Returned when command is first sent to
server, and every subsequent time it is
sent until loading finishes.
"LOADED" The program has been successfully
loaded, this will continue to be returned,
and the program will not load until either
StopAT() is called or the server receives
results on that COM port.
Variant RunProgramInAT
(LPCSTR ComPort)
“NO PROGRAM” The AT has no program to run.
"SENT" Returned when the program has started
to run and every subsequent time the
function is called until the server receives
results.
“DONE” The program has finished running,
results will be available. If the function is
called after it has returned this value it
will cause the program to be run again.
Variant StopAT
(LPCSTR ComPort)
“STOPPED” The AT must stop whatever test it is
running
