Enterprise Server; Intellution Fix - Bristol Babcock Network 3000 Setup Manual

Enterprise Server

If you are using Enterprise Server, running on a VAX computer, many critical
application and data link parameters reside in the COMMPORT.TXT file.
Be aware that all top-level nodes in this type of system must have expanded
memory configured to hold template data. In addition, the top-level nodes must
have a Serial CFE Port configured (instead of a Slave Port) in order to communicate
with Enterprise Server.
There are numerous other configuration activities which must be performed, see the
Enterprise documentation set for details.

Intellution FIX
If you will be using Intellution
software, we recommend that you install all Open BSI programs in the \WDMACS
directory. Otherwise, you will need to modify the PATH statement in
AUTOEXEC.BAT to include the Open BSI installation directory, or else Intellution
®
FIX will be unable to locate required dynamic link libraries (DLLs).
See the Open BSI documentation as well as the Intellution
for more information on installation.
Setting Parameters in the Intellution® FIX® BR3DIDW.INI File:
The following parameters that affect how Open BSI works with Intellution® FIX®
are set in the BR3DIDW.INI file:
OutstandingMessagesPerDevice= n
n defines the maximum number of messages that can be outstanding
at any one time to a single RTU. We recommend you set
OutstandingMessagesPerDevice to a low number (start off
between 5 and 10). Keeping OutstandingMessagesPerDevice to
a low number allows the BR3 driver to communicate with more
RTUs at startup instead of flooding a few RTUs with many
messages and causing all others to time out.
BSIMexBuff= m
m this parameter defines the maximum number of buffers that are
allocated from the pool of Open BSI buffers available for use by the
Network 3000 Communications Configuration Guide
