You can create and run scripts to activate certain functions on a VBrick appliance. There are
three ways to run scripts on an appliance. (1) You can run scripts for test purposes using the
button in IWS; (2) you can use the IR Remote Control; and (3) you can use an
Run Script
external event trigger (see "Event Triggering" in the VBrick Appliance Getting Started Guide).
The VBrick appliance can be set up to use serial (COM1) Pins 7 and 8, or 0 through 9 on the
IR Remote as input events to trigger the VBrick to run scripts. The script files execute certain
commands using VBrick SDK parameters to activate certain functions within the VBrick
appliance. There are a total of four possible input events (COM1 Pin8 Low, COM1 Pin8
High, COM1 Pin7 Low, COM1 Pin7 High) and ten possible input events using the IR
Remote (each has one associated script file).
VBrick SDK parameters are explained in detail in the VBrick SDK User Guide. The VBrick
SDK is available for customers who wish to build custom applications to control VBrick
appliances. It also explains how to configure and control VBrick appliances via command line
scripts. For more information about the VBrick SDK, contact your certified VBrick reseller
or VBrick Support Services. To purchase the SDK directly from VBrick, go to:
www.vbrick.com/products/purchase.asp.
Note You cannot execute a script either with the IR Remote Control or using an event
trigger if IWS is currently running in
