- iRMX Program Launching from DOS or Windows:
- -------------------------------------------
-
- This directory contains software that lets you launch iRMX programs
- from DOS or Windows:
-
- There are five files here:
-
- RLS - the Remote Load Server job, to be loaded from iRMX
-
- WLC.EXE - the Windows Load Client executable for Standard Mode Windows
-
- RWLC.EXE- the Windows Load Client executable for Real Mode Windows
-
- DLC.EXE - DOS Load Client.
-
- CLI.NEW - the iRMX CLI CUSP that can be loaded from DLC or WLC
-
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- INSTALLATION:
- -------------
-
- 1. WLC:
-
- To be able run the Windows Load Client (WLC.EXE or RWLC.EXE), copy it to
- the WINDOWS directory (e.g. c:\windows) and fire up windows.
-
- Open up the WINDOWS APPLICATION GROUP.
-
- Pull down the PROGRAMS MANAGER's FILE MENU and select NEW.
-
- Click OK and a PROGRAM ITEM PROPERTIES box pops up.
-
- In the DESCRIPTION field add "Launch Real-Time" or whatever you like.
-
- In the COMMAND LINE field add "WLC.EXE".
-
- Click OK. An ICON should appear in your WINDOWS APPLICATION GROUP.
-
- NOTE: The full Syntax of WLC.EXE command line is:
-
- WLC.EXE [RLS Server name] [<command name> [<param>,,]]
-
- 2. DLC:
-
- Just copy DLC.EXE to the \DOSRMX directory.
-
- 3. RLS:
-
- Just copy RLS to the \rmx386\jobs directory.
-
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- INVOCATION:
- -----------
-
- 1. First load the REMOTE LOAD SERVER (RLS):
-
- use SYSLOAD to run RLS from where you installed it;
-
- SYSLOAD /RMX386/JOBS/RLS
-
- 2. In your /NET/DATA file add an entry for RLS: e.g.
-
- FRED.RLS/nfs: TYPE=rmx: ADDRESS=0x30000A00000001############000000;
-
- where the ############ is the ethernet address of the server on which
- RLS is running.
-
- Run LOADNAME /NET/DATA to add FRED.RLS to the Name Server database.
-
-
- 3. Running WLC:
-
- Fire up MS-NET on the DOS machine.
-
- Fire up WINDOWS.
-
- Double Click on the WLC ICON and a window pops up (similar to WTERM).
-
- Pull down the PROGRAM menu and select LOAD.
-
- A dialog box will pop up asking for the Server name and the Command name.
- Enter FRED.RLS for the server name,
- Enter name of the iRMX Application you want to execute for the Command,
- Click the OK button.
-
- Now play around and tell us what you think of it so far!
-
- 4. Running DLC:
-
- Fire up MS-NET on the DOS machine.
-
- Just enter DLC<cr>. This will display the USAGE message.
-
- 5. By loading the CLI.NEW program from DLC or WLC, you essentially get
- an iRMX Command Line Session. Using multiple invocations of WLC or
- DLC you can then get multiple such sessions.
