Overview Concept of system operation
3.2.2 Software
The following software components play an important role in S130 operation:
● Window interface
The SINIX operating system is run on the 3970-SKP. One component of SINIX is the
window interface based on the X Window system (see the ”SINIX-2000 V7.0” [1]
manual).
A brief introduction to the window system can be found in the chapter entitled
"Brief introduction to the window system" in the "SINIX-2000 V7.0" [1] manual.
Further information can be found in the "SINIX/windows User Environment
V3.0" [3] manual.
The following system components use the window system:
– BS2000 (e.g. CONS0 or EM9750 window, see page 34)
– SVP (e.g. SVPST0 window, see page 34)
– SINIX (e.g. SINIX or EVENT window, see page 34)
The system provides preconfigured windows for operation which are opened automat-
ically when the 3970-SKP is started up.
The number of windows for operating BS2000 and SINIX, the order of the
windows on the screen, their size and some other properties can be changed
using the relevant configuration functions.
Information on this can be found in the chapter entitled "Configuring the
system", in the sections "X screens" and "Virtual screens", in the "SINIX-2000
V7.0" manual.
● Console distribution program KVP (German acronym)
The operation of the BS2000 from the 3970-SKP is controlled by the Console Distri-
bution Program. KVP carries out the following tasks:
– authorization controls
– distribution of the BS2000 tasks to several consoles
– short and long term logging of the console traffic
KVP requires parameters that are stored in the KVP parameter file of the built-in disk of
the 3970-SKP. The KVP parameters are created in SINIX when the system is generated
and can be changed with the help of the SINIX configuration.
Information on configuring the KVP can be found in the chapter entitled “Configuring
the system”, in the section “KVP”, in the “SINIX-2000 V7.0” manual.
