Using the IConnection Interface for the ProcessColonCommand Method

The following code shows an example of using the interface for the ProcessColonCommand() method:

// Format the required command string 
string cmd = "HEL"
// Send the command to the host system
ABSConnection.ProcessColonCommand(cmd);

After the command is sent, responses from the host application are collected in the MessageQueue property of the MessagesHandler, which is an instance of the IUnsolicitedMessages interface. See IUnsolicitedMessages Interface for more information.
