Multiple-Thread Mode

Main program creates a thread (CreateThread( ) ) for session with I/O Box and calls the function within this thread to wait for the establishment of session with the I/O Box. While the main program waits in the loop, it makes necessary processes of each message.

After the created thread confirms the session, the sub-thread throws a message to the main program which makes the main program confirms the session. Refer to Chapter 5.5 “Sample Program” on page 38 for a sample program to use the function in “Multiple-Thread Mode”.
