Parameter | Description |

Click this to make the connection send-only. The engine receives only
reply messages from the host. Clicking this disables all other
configuration entries in this pane. When this is selected, the engine expects to receive a reply if you have set up the thread to do so. By setting up for replies, the outbound thread sets an awaiting reply flag each time it sends a message out. This happens when Outbound tab. This tells the engine to expect a reply. ignores any unexpected inbound messages that arrive when the awaiting reply flag is not set. is selected on theWhen this is cleared, this indicates that you are using your outbound thread to receive data messages from the destination system. An example would be a request for a lab order number. A system could be set up to respond back to the outbound thread with this lab order number. This is not common because most interfaces use another inbound thread to communicate data back to the source system. If you are having problems with losing replies from the destination system, then you can temporarily clear this option. In this way, you can track replies that may have been received after the reply time-out period. After the time-out is met, the awaiting reply flag is turned off and this option discards late arriving replies. |

Select this to hold inbound data. When this is cleared, inbound data is
released. When selected, messages can be resent to a running inbound thread. Simultaneously, this option holds the thread from reading messages through its protocol driver. This is required to maintain the correct message order when resending |

Click Inbound TPS Editor.
Then, click to open the TPS
Properties dialog box, from where you can select the
procedures or Java class and arguments for inbound data messages. This
TPS pre-processes inbound data messages before being sent to a
translation thread. If a procedure applies to all messages, then put the procedure in TPS Inbound Data. If the procedure applies to less than all messages, then put the procedure in one or more route details. When is selected on the Inbound TPS Editor, a sub-thread is created under the protocol thread. This sub-thread is used only for data type messages, not those of type reply. There must be a TPS defined; there is no sub-thread if a TPS is not defined. |
