sys_start
Purpose:
Initialize shared memory areas, semaphores, and events for the CyFlex system.
Enter:
-
sys_start [filename] [real=X] [integer=X] [logical=X] [string=X] [stat=X] [expr=X] [saved_data=X] [limits=X] [tables=X] [alias=X] [rarray=X] [iarray=X] [sarray=X] [larray=X] [PAM_stats=X] [log_vars=X]
Where:
-
filename
Optional. Specify the filename to access initialization information. The default is ‘/cell/logi_specs.nnn’, where nnn is the test cell number.
real=X
Optional. Specify the number of general usage real variables allowed. The default is 1000.
integer=X
Optional. Specify the number of general usage integer variables allowed. The default is 200.
logical=X
Optional. Specify the number of general usage logical variables allowed. The default is 200.
string=X
Optional. Specify the number of general usage string variables allowed. The default is 256.
stat=X
Optional. Specify the number of general usage statistical variables allowed. The default is 100.
expr=X
Optional. Specify the number of general usage computed expressions allowed. The default is 1000.
saved_data=X
Optional. Specify the number of variables that can be stored in the /data/save_parameters file. The default is 200.
limits=X
Optional. Specify the number of limits allowed. The default is 200.
tables=X
Optional. Specify the number of calibration tables allowed. The default is 100.
alias=X
Optional. Specify the number of aliases variables names. The default is 100.
rarray=X
Optional. Specify the number of real array variables. The default is 10.
iarray=X
Optional. Specify the number of integer array variables. The default is 10.
sarray=X
Optional. Specify the number of string array variables. The default is 10.
larray=X
Optional. Specify the number of logical array variables. The default is 10.
PAM_stats=X
Optional. Specify the maximum number of pam_specs variables that can be specified as “AVER”. The default is 1000.
log_vars=X
Optional. Specify the maximum number of variables that can be logged with either floger or dlogger. The default is 1000.
Example:
-
sys_start filename real=1000 integer=384 logical=1000 string=256 stat=128 expr=1000 saved_data=256 limits=200 tables=256 long_tables=12 PAM_stats=100 log_vars=1200
The above example performs initialization and overrides the default values with the specified values for each of the specified data types. By specifying 1200 for the log_vars argument, upto 1200 variables can be logged within the dlogger and floger programs.
sys_start
The above command performs initialization and accesses the file logi_specs.nnn for some of the initialization information.
Notes:
-
Use the ‘show_mem’ command to check shared memory usage. Array sizes for general use variables are flexible and configurable.
