5.3DDE (Dynamic Data Exchange) Server

The ADAM-5000 DDE server takes advantage of DDE, a built-in Windows communication service. The DDE server acquires data from the ADAM-5000 systems and passes it to your application program via the hot link (DDE). The software can also pass control and configuration commands to the ADAM-5000 systems using the DDE protocol. You can now use ADAM-5000 systems with most Windows- based data acquisition software that supports DDE. Examples include Intellution's FIX DMACS, Wonderware’s InTouch, ONSPEC, Paragon and Excel.

For details on the ADAM-5000 DDE server refer to the DDE server manual for the ADAM-5000.
