TAB #!EF #!N #!N Functional Details #!N #!N To maintain the
modularity and readability of large programs, Data Explorer provides two tools
that allow connections between input and output tabs of separate modules
without the use of a visible connecting line. These tools, Transmitter
and Receiver, allow 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 an
image. #!N #!N Receivers and Transmitters can also be used to
communicate information between pages in the Visual Program Editor (see #!Lvpepage,dxall356 h Creating pages in the VPE #!EL
in IBM Visualization Data Explorer User's Guide). Pages are a valuable
way of structuring complex visual programs into logical blocks. Note: Macros
provide another way of structuring visual programs in logical blocks (see
#!Lmacros,dxall435 h Creating and Using Macros #!EL in IBM Visualization Data Explorer User's Guide). #!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 a Transmitter tool (in the Special
category in the tool palette) and place it near the output
tab of the module that is to be "connected." #!N #!I30
#!N 2. Connect the module's output tab to the Transmitter's input
tab. #!N #!I30 #!N 3. Select a Receiver tool (also in
the Special category), and place it near the input tab of
the other module that is to be "connected." #!N #!I30 #!N
4. Connect the Receiver's output tab to the second module's input
tab. #!N #!N The Transmitter and Receiver are now connected. #!N
#!I0 #!N #!EF #!N #!N #!N The Receiver automatically assumes the
same name as the Transmitter. More than one Receiver can be
connected to a single Transmitter and they assume the same name
until a new Transmitter is placed on the VPE canvas. #!N
#!N #!I0 #!N Notes: #!N #!I30 #!N 1. To change the
name of a Transmitter and Receiver, use the #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18* Notation #!EF
field of the appropriate configuration dialog box (see in #!Lucb,dxall345 h Entering Values in a Configuration Dialog Box #!EL in
IBM Visualization Data Explorer User's Guide). Changing the name of a
Transmitter changes the name of all the Receivers connected to it.
Changing the name of a Receiver affects only that receiver. #!N

Programs #!N #!N Receivers and transmitters are used by many of
the example visual programs, including: #!CForestGreen #!N #!N #!F-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal--18* #!N AlternateVisualizations.net
