I'm not familiar with the 5070B or 5071B but it could be that the firmware
in the instruments is different and therefore it may not be possible to load
a 5070B instrument state on a 5071B.
After upgrading the firmware on a HP8719ES Network Analyser I found it would
not load old instrument states I has saved off before.

Subject: [vrf] Network Analyer people - HELP!! - (5070B)
All, - and apologies for this non vee mail but am very stressed!!!
Does anyone know how to get a state file from a 5070B to work on a 5071B?-
They are the same instrument, but the 5071 is an 8.5GHz variant.
When trying to load the state it just says 'recall failed'.
If anyone has any experience of this or ideas, please, please mail of call
me..
Thanks, - and sorry again to the vee guys
Alex.

did I understand you correctly that your program did stop executing but from VEE-development it still seems to run?
So when you trace the currently active vee objects with the green boxes (execution flow) you see some objects that are light green and vee seems to hang here?
If so, and your 'event driven serial input functions' pointed me to that direction, I stromgly assume a deadlock due to the fact that vee cannot execute a function when it is already running: if function A is executing and an event interrupts that execution and tries to call function A again this deadlock occurs - without any error message or such.
If you use events as kind of interrupt routines keep trhe following things in mind:
- make the interrupt routine as short and quick as possible (this was true on the old 8088 - and is still)
- do not call any functions from the interrupt routine. A solution is often to raise a flag here and test it on a 'parallel' vee thread. There cou can safely call the desired function.
I hope that was your problem and I could give you some assistance
best regards,
