If you have a retry loop in your script that uses WHEN string1 string2
inside the loop. Each time the loop re-executes these WHEN statements are
processed again and "build up" until to many WHENs have been issued.
You can prevent this by issuing a WHEN statement without any strings to
clear *all* active WHEN statements. So, at the top of your loop, clear
all WHENs and then issue any WHEN statements needed inside the loop.
Thank you Chuck for your response. I believe this is exactly whats
happening. I am using the standard Mustang script for connecting with
a wildcat board. I works perfectly unless I get too many busy signals.
Being a complete novice at scripts, I will try and dig out the book and
see if I can understand what you have said and make the correction.
Appreciate the help.
Ken
