PTMAP provides the ability to suspend and resume the receipt of responses from Point Management. These functions should be used whenever the application will be unable to accept responses from the PTMRP. For example, if the application must synchronously accept user input for an undetermined length of time, it should suspend requests before allowing user input, and resume requests when interaction with the user has completed.
During the time that responses are suspended, the application does not receive "On-Change", "On-Alarm", "On-Acknowledge", and Timed requests. When responses are resumed, the application is sent all point values for which "On-Change", "On-Alarm", "On-Acknowledge", and Timed requests were made.
The subroutines are:
