Automatic Message Log

Since NPort Administrator may be used in a multi-user environment, it is possible for a user to modify a device server’s configuration with other users unaware of the changes. Accordingly, NPort Administrator keeps a record of activity messages in the Message Log, located in the installation file directory. When a user closes NPort Administrator, thelog will be saved as “file message_x.log”, where ‘x’ cycles in value from 0 to 9.

That’s why the native COM ports on the motherboard can work fast with this function call, but the NPort requires much more time. In order to accommodate other applications that require a faster response time, the new NPort driver implements a new “Fast Flush” option. Note that by default, this function is disabled 9.
