Re: I'm not sure exactly how it does its work though.

Setpars uses the db_install service of the CP to make its changes. This is
the same service used by the ICC and the ICC Driver Task.

Corey,
        Yes, setpars is a very powerful app but it does reinitialize the
blocks it works on.  It is comparable to making the change in the ICC
and then saying "DONE" but with the added power of changing globally
parameters in all blocks of a given type. i.e. (change all AIN's .INHIB
to 0). I'm not sure exactly how it does its work though.

I know, I know, when you play with fire....  But hey, this list is full
of=20
pyromaniacs -- you know who you are :)
I was toying with this command the other day, turning off INHIB on a
test=20
block, and noticed that the entire detail display for the block smurfed=20
for 1/2 second or so.  Does anyone know if setpars reinitialize a block
it=20
is acting upon?  What exactly it its communication mechanism?
