Installation
Step 2. Start the interface with the emul700 command
Step 2. Start the interface with the emul700 command
Apply power to the emulator you wish to access after making sure
1
the emulator is connected to the LAN or to your host system.
On the HP 64700 Series Emulator, the power switch is located on the front
panel near the bottom edge. Push the switch in to turn power on to the
emulator.
Wait a few seconds to allow the emulator to complete its startup
2
initialization.
Choose a terminal window from which to start the Graphical User
3
Interface.
Start the Graphical User Interface by entering emul700 command
4
and giving the logical name of the emulator as an argument to the
command, as in
$HP64000/bin/emul700 <logical_name> &
or
emul700 <logical name> &
if $HP64000/bin is in your path.
If you are running the X server, if the Graphical User Interface is installed,
and if your DISPLAY environment variable is set, the emul700 command will
start the Graphical User Interface. Otherwise, emul700 starts the
conventional Softkey Interface.
You should include an ampersand ("&") with the command to start the
Graphical User Interface as a background process. Doing so frees the
terminal window where you started the interface so that the window may still
be used.
Optionally start additional Graphical User Interface windows into the
5
same emulation session by repeating the previous step.
You can also choose to use the conventional Softkey Interface under X
Windows, but you must include a command line argument to emul700 to
override the default Graphical User Interface. Start the conventional interface
by entering
emul700 -u skemul <logical name>
