## Load data from exchange

This function is similar to the background load which starts automatically when connecting to a system, therefore both functions are described here.

When successfully connecting to a system, a background process starts, which loads all the data in memory from the system. This process runs with a low priority, so that the user can start working with the system immediately after connection. The necessary data will be loaded and provided to the user. If the user changes the data, the background process will not overwrite the changes.

This background load has several purposes:

- It allows quick data access for performing a given operation (the data is already loaded and there is no need for additional read messages).
- It allows the programming of some functions, which requires more or less complete data for performing validation checks.
- It stores the complete configuration in the database.

Only a complete (consistent) configuration can be stored in the database. If the background load has not yet been completed, an error message will be displayed.

When the background loading is running and the user invokes the Administrative functions dialog, a progress indicator is shown, displaying what type of data is currently loading and the percentage already loaded. This indicator is updated every 5 seconds.

When the loading process is ready, this progress indicator will show:

Administrative Functions: My BP 3 [ONLINE] Ready

If the background load (or load) fails, the progress/status indicator will show the corresponding information:

Administrative Functions: My BP 3 [ONLINE] Loading data [E2 data]: 16% FAILED: Exception caught: E2 area could not be read. 112 CardST: 6; IndSN: 11

If the user has cancelled the background load (or load), the progress/status indicator will show that the operation was interrupted by the user:

Administrative Functions: My BP 3 [ONLINE] Loading data [E2 data]: 38% Interrupted by user

The function Load is used to restart the background load, if it was interrupted by the user or failed for some other reason.

If all the data has already been loaded, this function has no effect, i.e. only the progress indicator Ready is displayed.
