Server to Client Events
The server to client events allow the 86038A ODA to update the client with
current data or instrument settings. In this context, the ODA 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
ODA. 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 ODA. If you receive this event after your
connection has been established, and the value is false, you need to re-
establish your connection.
Parameters
connected - True = Connected to the ODA
