AutoMax On Line Menu

11.0 AutoMax ON LINE MENU

The ON LINE! command in the System Configurator and the Task

Manager applications allows you to select the ON LINE menu shown

in figure 11.1. Options on this menu are used to load, run, stop,

monitor, and modify application tasks in the rack and to connect to

other racks on the network(s). In addition, this menu provides access

to the error log kept for each AutoMax Processor or UDC module

running tasks.
Before attempting to use any of the options in the ON LINE menu,

you must load the operating system onto the Processor modules and

UDC modules in the rack if you have not already done so. Refer to

5.4.3 for directions on loading the operating system.
