DAE Installation

The DAE executable is called RELICOMM.EXE. If you are using ScreenWare2

version 3.10, place this file in the directory \SW2\ANIMATE and rename it

DAE.EXE. ScreenWare2 can then access and load DAE from ScreenWare2's

master menu.
Use the following command line structure to access the PC Link module:

DAE <file> Ćd<drop> Ćh<depth> Ća<address>

where:
file

(required)

The file argument specifies the application path and file that has been

created using the ScreenWare2 logic editor. The application file always

has an .APP extension. The file extension does not have to be included in

the argument on the command line.

drop

(optional)

The drop argument specifies the starting drop number that you want the

ScreenWare2 operator station to adopt on the AutoMax network. If there

is a conflict with an existing drop on the network, an error message will

be generated and DAE will exit.
Note that the drop must be specified if the

ScreenWare2 application is to write to the network. If the drop is not

specified, ScreenWare2 can only read from the AutoMax network.

depth (required if drop is specified; otherwise optional) The depth argument

specifies the number of drops (starting at the drop specified) that you

want the ScreenWare2 operator station to adopt on the AutoMax network.

If there is a conflict with an existing drop on the network, an error

message will be generated and DAE will exit.

address (optional)

The address is a hexadecimal argument which specifies the starting

address of the dual port memory with reference to the host memory.

This must coincide with the address specified in the command line of

the PC Link software loader program. If the address is omitted, the DAE

assumes that the PC Link module dual port memory resides at

segment D0000 (default address).

For example,

DAE ..\SW2FILES\RELI.APP Ćd10 Ćh4 ĆaD000
