Hi Doug, That could well be the case, this pressure xmttr is used by a lot of ind's and calc's. In that case it'll be difficult to solve this probably, other than extending the exception to sys-error or exception to manual I guess. I'll do some more testing on it. Thanks Dirk "Douglas G.

This can happen with a read or a write, since even a read function appears to temporarily "secure" the parameter. It's generally not a problem if multiple sequences in the same CP access the same parameter since they really can't execute simultaneously. But, no guarantees peer-to-peer.
