########### The reason being that it is not the solution to this problem. When the X will not stay it seems to be because the FEE64 cannot open a 
connection to the Server. -------- Entry 230 was to help when the rates in the fastest  part of the system caused one of the FEE64 to be blocked for 
control access  while waiting for the slowest to produce data. Judging by the next entry in this diary I think this is now understood but .... 'belt and 
braces' seems a good idea ;-)

I've not seen the 'H' disappear but it could similarly mean that the enabling of Histogramming is failing. Perhaps check the Options settings for this 
FEE64 to see that the Histogram quantity and size parameters are the same as another FEE64.
