Resets one or all Receive Sequence hit counter(s). Also resets the search algorithm which checks the character stream for a matching Receive Sequence (see example code below).

 

Return Value

 

Void

 

Syntax

 

DL.ResetReceiveCounter [nameOrIndex]

 

The ResetReceiveCounter method syntax has these parts:

 

 

Remarks

 

See also GetReceiveCounter and WaitForSequence

 

Example

 

See WaitForSequence for a basic example.

 

A second application is demonstrated below - resetting the receive sequence detection each time a new Send Sequence is transmitted. This is especially useful when Docklight is testing a serial device, and the sequence detection should not get confused by incomplete or faulty packets received earlier. See also DL_OnSend().

 

' Example ResetReceiveCounter

' Reset sequence detection each time a new sequence is sent

 

' Endless loop to prevent the script from terminating immediately

Do

   DL.Pause 1 ' (the pause reduces CPU load while idle)

Loop

 

Sub DL_OnSend()

   DL.ResetReceiveCounter

End Sub
