Break On String Options
Select Diagnostics > Break On String Options to open the Break On String Options dialog (FIG. 250).

defined string is matched with the current message from the NetLinx master. In this case, the connection remains active,
but the program stops processing the appropriate message stream.

type(s) are stopped. The items in this dialog include:
