| Author | Forum: PowerVT Topic: Creating a script with a Direct Session ( com port to Com Port) |
| linuxguy2 From: McKinney, TX USA Posts: 6 Member Since: 03/22/05 |
posted March 22, 2005 1:46 AM I am configured as a simplee com port 1 on machine "A" to comp port 2 on machine "B" with a null modem serial cable. I am able to manually send BMP's back and forth. When I attempt to create a "new" script, populate the ""Upon Receiving" field, then select "send File " in the execute command field the "Parameter field" does not allow me to specify WHAT file to send. I know this is a operator problem but I was unable to locate a users guide to explain how to do this. Also I would expect the logging feature to capture my sequence of operation but the log file is blank. Thanks |

posted March 22, 2005 8:53 AM Have you ever done this using another program? Like HyperTerminal? |

posted March 22, 2005 10:12 AM No, I was hoping the PowerVT scripting was easy to use. Why can't I select a file to send? |

posted March 22, 2005 10:17 AM Because all send file does is trigger a program on the Telnet server to get ready to receive a file. When the server sends the signal that it is ready, PowerVT sends it. In the case of a direct connection you have to do everything manually. You stated "I am able to manually send BMP's back and forth." What steps do you use to do that? |

posted March 22, 2005 10:18 AM I know this is simple for programers (I do not write much code) :) but what I really need is a manual on how to use the scripting feature in PowerVT |

posted March 22, 2005 10:20 AM I sue the SEND FILE feature of the program. TOOLS > SEND FILE > browse to folder with file and off it goes. |

posted March 22, 2005 10:24 AM There is no other manual than the help file that you have. Also, I apologize, but I cannot think of a way that you can automate what you are trying to do. |

posted March 22, 2005 10:26 AM Let me explain what I want to do: From the server (XP machine) I want to send a bitmap (just a big red circle) to the client (Win 2K machine)and have the client display it. I don't mind sending it manually but I want the client to display automatically it when it receives it. I need to use direct session Zmodem portocol. Can't use any netwroking protocols. |
