The server to client events allow the 86038B PDLA to update the
client with current data or instrument settings. In this context,
the PDLA is the server and your program is the client. These
events are asynchronous. That is, you cannot determine when
they are going to occur. You need to set up event handlers for
the events you want to catch.
Indicates that a remote session has connected to/disconnected
from the PDLA. Once you have requested a connection using the
Connect method on the Connectivity object, you must wait for
this event to return a true before sending commands to the
PDLA. If you receive this event after your connection has been
established, and the value is false, you need to re-establish your
connection.

connected - True = Connected to the PDLA
