Syntax
void canOffline(); // form 1: deprecated
dword canOffline(dword flags); // form 2
Function
Cuts the connection between the node and the bus. Messages send from the node are not passed through to the bus. The functioncanOnline()will restore the connection. If the node is set to offline, output instructions for sending messages in CAPL or NodeLayer DLL are ignored (refers to a node locally only).Regardless of the status, all messages are received in the CAPL program/NodeLayer. Form 1 only has an effect on the CAPL-program. In Form 2 you can choose between the CAPL-program and/or the Nodelayer-DLL.
Parameters
Flags Indicates the deactivated part of the node.
Return Values
Form 2 returns the part of the node being online before the function call. Equal to the flags.
