#!F-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--18* #!N #!CSeaGreen #!N #!Rtnr Using Transmitters and Receivers #!N #!EC #!N #!N It is possible to create large visual programs in Data Explorer. Data Explorer provides two tools, Transmitter and Receiver, to maintain the modularity and readability of large programs. These tools allow connections between input and output tabs without using a visible connecting line. Using the Transmitter and Receiver tools allows you to separate visual programs into logical blocks. For example, the output of several logical blocks can be transmitted to another block that receives them, collects them, and produces the image. Macros, described in #!Lmacros,dxall435 h Creating and Using Macros #!EL , provide another way to structure visual programs into logical blocks. #!N #!N To remotely connect input and output tabs: #!N #!I0 #!N #!F-adobe-times-medium-r-normal--18* #!N #!N #!I30 #!N 1. Select the Transmitter tool, which appears under the Special category in the tool palette, and place it near the output tab. #!N #!I30 #!N 2. Connect the tool's output tab to the input tab of the Transmitter. #!N #!I30 #!N 3. Select the Receiver tool (also in the Special category), and place it near the input tab to be connected to the output tab above. #!N #!I30 #!N 4. Connect the Receiver's output tab to the receiving tool icon's input tab. #!N #!N The Receiver automatically assumes the same name as the Transmitter. There can be multiple instances of a Receiver corresponding to a single Transmitter. These Receivers assume the same name until a new Transmitter is selected. #!N #!N The name of a Transmitter and Receiver can be changed using the notation field of the Configuration dialog box (as described in #!Lucb,dxall345 h Entering Values in a Configuration Dialog Box #!EL ). When you change the name of the Transmitter, all Receivers that share a name with that Transmitter also change their names. However, when you change the name of a particular Receiver, the associated Transmitter and the other Receivers are not affected. #!N #!I0 #!N #!EF #!N #!N #!N #!N #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18* Next Topic #!EF #!N #!N #!Lartabs,dxall344 h Adding and Removing Input and Output Tabs #!EL #!N #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18* #!N
