The installation procedure checks if Technovision is already installed using user T2000-CAD and Technovision configuration file (SYSTEM)TECH-CONF:CONF and handles the cases: a) Technovision not installed => complete new installation b) Release 101 installed => update of release 101 to 103 c) Release 103 installed => rebuilding directory APPLICATION d) Undefined installation status => stop installation

The device number of the peripheral file PLOT will be checked. Only 44B (T1 on old plug carrier for 8 Terminal interface) and 52B (L3 on new plug carrier for Leonardo/MTAD) are allowed.

The installation procedure will create the necessary users and friends on the customer dependent directories PACK-MAIN (in the previous version it was named PACK-USERS-1), PACK-USERS-3 (drawing users) and for a local archive also on PACK-USERS-2.

The following users are copied to customer directories: - APPLICATION:SAVE-CAD -> PACK-MAIN:T2000-CAD *1) - APPLICATION:SAVE-OVERLAY -> PACK-MAIN:TECH-OVERLAY

If local archive: - APPLICATION:SAVE-SIB -> PACK-USERS-2:TECH-SIB *1)

*1) In case b the users are updated

For case a: - User T2000-PLCT will be created on PACK-MAIN and the initialized plot queue file PLOT:QUE will be copied to this user.

  • A first TECHNET configuration with the following areas and users are created:

    Pages Files
    WRITE-AREA PACK-USERS-3:TECH-WRITE-01 10000 1024
    READ-AREA PACK-USERS-3:TECH-READ-01 4000 1024
    PACK-USERS-3:TECH-READ-02 2000 1024
    PLOTWR PACK-MAIN:T2000-PLOT 1000 256
  • Three test drawings ND1, ND2, ND3 and a test macro FXM0100 will be copied to user TECH-WRITE-01.

The users SAVE-CAD, SAVE-OVERLAY, SAVE-SIB and TECH-INSTALL will be deleted.

User APPLICATION:SWAP-FILE-2 with a swap file of - 14500 pages if version 1 - 9000 pages if version 2 - 7000 pages if version 3

will be created and defined.

For version 2 (with TECHSURF) and version 3 (with TECHSURF and TECHSOLID) additional swap space is needed.

The installation files and the configuration file TECH-CONF:CONF will be copied to user SYSTEM.

A TECHNOVISION specific Backup Manager Job file will be copied to user ND-OPERATIONS.

The file (APPLICATION-MODE)APPLICATION-HENT:MODE will be called from (EXTRA-SYSTEM)HENT-MODE:MODE which runs after a cold start.

The file (APPLICATION-MODE)APPLICATION-LOAD:MODE will be called from (EXTRA-SYSTEM)LOAD-MODE:MODE which runs during warm start.

The file (APPLICATION-MODE)APPLICATION-STOP:MODE will be called from (EXTRA-SYSTEM)STOP-MODE:MODE which will stop the system.

The following user environment users will be created: - user: TECH-SUPER-GE password: ND - TECH-SUPER-EN ND - TECH-CAD-GE CAD - TECH-CAD-EN CAD

The RT-program TNSSER will be loaded and TECHNET-SERVER will be started. TECHNET-SERVICE will be defined as a standard domain.

For local archive only:

  • The archive will be initialized on user TECH-SIB with a size for about 1000 drawings and one norm part package. The archive
  • logfile (RLOG) will be created on user PACK-USERS-2: XLOG with a size of 1500 pages. Archive access number 100 will be created and the three test drawings ND1, ND2, ND3 and the test macro FRA0100 will be entered to the archive.
  • A first emergency file (T2000-CAD)MERFILE:DATA will be generated.
  • For a local archive sibas process number 0 will be used.

For a "remote archive" sibas process number 100 will be used. That means KSTBI must be defined in COSMOS and the TECHNET configuration must be edited using TECHNET-SERVICE.

If version 3 (TECHSURF and TECHSOLID) is installed one thing is different to the floppy installation. There is no domain CAD-SURF for TECHSURF. The domain CAD-RAS includes also the option TECHSURF.

Additional options can be installed using (SYSTEM)TECH-CONF:PROG and XCOM (SYSTEM)TECH-INST-102. For details see PD-sheet 210702102.

Installation Instructions

  • If you do not install this streamer 211471B01 inside the installation procedure of streamer 211470B01 (after running (EXTRA-SYSTEM)SYSTEM-CONFIG and before starting @MODE (MODE-FILES)COLD-START:MODE) run mode file:

    @MODE (APPLICATION-MODE)APPLICATION-INIT::MODE,,
    
  • If you install for the first time on a TECHNOSTATION with the old plug carrier (without plugs L1 to L8) execute the command:

    @SET-PHERIPHERAL-FILE "PLOT" 44B
    
  • Start the installation procedure: @(TECH-INSTALL)TECH-ST-INST-I03
  • Answer the following questions with YES or NO:
    • Do you want HEWLETT-PACKARD instead of CALCOMP-907?
    • Do you want a local archive?
  • The configuration will be listed. To start the installation answer YES to the question: Do you want to start the installation? If your answer is NO the installation stops and nothing is changed.
  • If the installation is stopped, afterwards directory APPLICATION must be copied again to device DISC-6-SCSI-1-0-1 because some files on the directory are modified during installation!
    If you are performing a complete new installation and only if you are performing a complete new installation start

    @MODE (APPLICATION-MODE)APPLICATION-DELE::MODE,,
    

    to remove all Technovision specific users from PACK-MAIN, PACK-USERS-2 and PACK-USERS-3 before you start the installation procedure again.

  • The installation procedure will write some messages to the error device telling what is going on.
  • Wait for message: TECHNOVISION IS READY FOR USE!
  • Inspect file (SYSTEM)TECH-INST:LIST to see if installation is ok!

Do not forget the installation of the necessary softkeys!

Swap File Creation

For software version 2 (TECHSURF in addition) and version 3 (TECHSUF and TECHSOLID in addition) create and define an additional swap file:

Version Workstation Type Pages
