Methods

Methods are commands that you issue to the

WDterm

control. All of the "

Inputxxx

" commands cause the terminal

to wait for operator input.

Note that your development environment may show more available methods for the WDterm control than are listed
here. This is normal. You may ignore methods you see that are not listed here.

Important

: When your application starts up, the serial port is "closed". You must call

OpenDevice

before other

method calls will work.

Except for the

ReInitAll

method, all methods use the

ActiveTerminal

property

to identify the terminal to use.

OpenDevice

(All Terminal Versions)

Function:

Opens the communications (serial) port. This must be called

before any of the methods described below. Make sure to set all

Properties

as desired before calling this method (except

ActiveTerminal

or

Quiet

).

CloseDevice

(All Terminal Versions)

Function:

Closes the communications (serial) port. This must be called

before changing any of the

Property

settings (except

ActiveTerminal

or

Quiet

). When your application starts up, the serial port is "closed". You

must call

OpenDevice

before other method calls will work.

DefineFormat

(15-Line Terminal Only)

Parameters: font, linecount

Function:

This adds a line formatting definition. This command is called

multiple times to build a display formatting definition for multiple lines
which is then sent to the

ActiveTerminal

by the

SendFormat

command.

Font is an integer code: 0="small", 1="medium", 2="large"
Linecount is a number 1-15 indicating the number of lines to apply the font selection to.
If only one line is defined (that is

DefineFormat

is called only once with a linecount of "1"), then after

SendFormat

is called, only one line will be available for display on the

ActiveTerminal

.

There are a limited number of lines available depending on the font size(s) chosen. Each font has a defined
height:

•

small: 16

•

medium: 24

•

large: 32

The total height of the defined lines cannot exceed 240. If it does, an error code is generated (see

CheckError

)

and the

SendFormat

command is ignored.

There is limited display width available for text. Depending on the font you select for a line:

•

small: 26 characters

•

medium: 20 characters

•

large: 13 characters
