******************************************************************
1. AS/400: Fixes REQUIRED for client/server
Access to the AS/400 from any of the supported client platforms (OS/2,
AIX, or Windows**) requires fixes to be installed on the client. Contact
us through the Internet ID or by FAX as described earlier to find out how
to obtain these fixes.
2. AS/400: GetNodeParams API is QNWGDNP
The name of the GetNodeParams API for AS/400 non-ILE languages is
QNWGDNP.
3. AS/400: STRNNURUN command added
The STRNNURUN command has been added to the AS/400 environment and is
similar to the NNURUN command documented in the user's guide. See the
panel help for the STRNNURUN command for more information.
4. AS/400: Server runs in QNWNNU subsystem
The NNU server runs in a subsystem called QNWNNU, not the QSYSWRK sub-
system.
5. AS/400: Server jobs started by STRNNU
Use the Start Neural Network Utility (STRNNU) command to start the NNU
server, optionally specifying an alternate port for client/server commu-
nications. STRNNU starts the QNWNNU subsystem as well as server jobs
named QNWNNUSVR and QNWNNUSJB. QNWNNUSVR listens on the port defined
until a client connection request is made. At that time it passes the
connection to the waiting QNWNNUSJB job and submits another QNWNNUSJB job
to provide the connection to a future client request.
6. AS/400: Sample code in QNWCSRC, QNWCBLSRC, and QNWRPGSRC
Sample code is not provided in QNWSAMPLE but in the files mentioned
above. The Perceptron model example is in QNWCSRC.
7. AS/400: Use InfoSeeker to access online Programmer's Reference
Enter STRINFSKR *BOOK BOOK(QNWNNREF) to see the online Programmer's Ref-
erence.
8. AS/400: Sample custom model stub program renamed
The sample custom model stub program QNWMSTUB described on page 144 of
the Programmer's Reference has been renamed MODLSTUB. It is located in
the QNWCSRC file.
9. Migration from V2 to V3 product using XLT2TO3
Contact us for more information about migrating from version two to this
product level. The XLT2TO3.EXE file was not provided with the product
but is available on request to convert version 2 translation templates to
the version 3.1 format.
10. Tools pull-down menu does not allow custom tools
The Tools pull-down menu does not support custom tools as described in
the product hardcopy documentation. Custom tools cannot be specified in
the Preference Notebook. Use the method supplied by your operating
system to access tools outside the NNU environment.
11. Translate editor changes all selected entries
When changing a value in the Translate editor, the change applies to all
selected fields. There is no option to selectively apply the change to
the fields selected.
12. Help pulldown from Fuzzy and Translate editor
The Help pulldown from these editors does not bring up the correct help
topic. Use the Help pulldown from the IDE main window or select the Help
Index topic you wish.
13. Preferences help error
If you press the Help key from the Preferences Notebook page, an incor-
rect help topic is displayed. To see the help for the Preferences Note-
book, select that topic from the Help Index from the Help pull-down on
the IDE main window.
14. Windows** Client/Server issues
If you are using TCP/IP, you must copy two files from the NNU product
directory to your TCPIP/BIN directory: WFTPAPI.DLL and WFTP.EXE.
Contact the developers through the contacts mentioned above if you expe-
rience further difficulty with client/server use.
15. AIX: Perceptron sample network graphic not available
The PERCEPTRON network graphic is available only for the OS/2 and Micro-
soft** Windows** environments. The Programmer's Reference, Appendix C
Example Programs is corrected accordingly.
16. AIX: No failure message saving fuzzy rulebase without write authority
When fuzzy rule bases are saved in the AIX environment, no failure
message is posted if the user does not have write authority to the
library. The user is incorrectly led to believe the rulebase was saved.
17. AIX: Demonstration access
Select Preferences Notebook from the Options pull-down menu. Click on
the Demonstrations tab. You must enter the path for each demonstration
module. Select each demonstration module and add /usr/lpp/nnu/demos/ as
a prefix to each module. Press the Add pushbutton to make the change.
Then delete the old entries by selecting each entry and pushing the
Remove pushbutton.
18. AIX: HELP support
The svdamemon process must be running for help access. Start the daemon
by entering svdaemon in the usr/lpp/nnu directory. Help can be accessed
only once. After you exit the help application, you are unable to
reenter until you leave the Interactive Development Environment and
return. The active directory in the AIX environment should be
/usr/lpp/nnu.
In AIX, you must copy all files with an extension of .hlp from
/usr/lpp/nnu/help to /usr/lpp/nnu. This will allow you to open the
model-specific help files, the Programmer's Reference, and the Installa-
tion and User's Guide within the Interactive Development Environment.
19. AIX: SVDAEMON does not register on AIX 4.1 systems
If you experience this error starting the svdaemon process, rlogin and
restart svdaemon from the root directory.
20. AIX: Use nnuenv file to setup environment variables
Before running nnu you must properly set your PATH, LIBPATH, and
XENVIRONMENT environment variables. For example, C shell users would
enter:
source /usr/lpp/nnu/nnuenv
To see current environment values for a variable, use the echo command as
follows:
echo $LIBPATH
21. Median not computed in histogram inspector
Statistical data displayed by the histogram inspector does not include
median.
22. Learn rate range not provided
Each model has its own unique range for the learn rate parameter. Ranges
are usually either 0 to 10 or 0 to 100. Online help to be updated next
release to provide specifics for each model.
23. Windows** and/or OS/2 VGA Inspector windows not visible
In the Windows environment, inspectors may inadvertantly be placed off
the screen. While selectable from the Windows pull-down menu in the IDE,
their XY placement coordinates are outside of the screen limitations. To
view these inspectors, edit the .ENV file to change the X-Y coordinates
to within the screen limits.
