Valid values:

Definition: This is a serial port setting and must match the base station setting. WDterm may allow other settings but those listed here are the only ones compatible with current version base stations.

Quiet	True, False
Valid values:

Definition: If Quiet is set to True then any status and error message generated by WDterm will be suppressed.

Methods – ActiveX Object

Methods are commands that you issue to the WDterm control. All of the "Inputxxx" commands cause the terminal to wait for operator input.

Note that your development environment may show more available methods for the WDterm control than are listed here. This is normal. You may ignore methods you see that are not listed here.

Important: When your application starts up, the serial port is "closed". You must call OpenDevice before other method calls will work.

Except for the ReInitAll method, all methods use the ActiveTerminal property to identify the terminal to use.

(except ActiveTerminal or Quiet).
