334 Module - eESPA

Figure 79

Typical parameters in the shortcut

In the example shown in Figure 79 "Typical parameters in the shortcut"

(page 334), the eESPA.exe identifies itself as belonging to site 1, and

specifies the location of eKERNEL through IP address *LOCAL and port

3114. The special value *LOCAL refers to the assigned IP address of

the first NIC adapter found in the PC. You can determine the IP address

using the IPCONFIG.exe command or in the appropriate sections of

the Windows network settings. The keyword Log drive refers to the

drive where the logging data must be stored. Usually this is C:\SOPHO

Messenger@Net\Log\.

The keyword SleepBeforeAnswer refers to the number of milliseconds

the system waits before sending an answer to the linked station. Some

systems block the answer if the answer is sent immediately (less than

6 milliseconds after receipt). Use this parameter to set a delay of x

milliseconds before the output is sent.

Note: The maximum supported value is 150 milliseconds

Set this value as low as possible, because during the delay time, the

application is inactive, so high values can disrupt the operation of the

system.

At start up, the eESPA.exe sends an XML string to eKERNEL.exe

requesting a configuration. This step is needed for each module that

interacts with eKERNEL.exe, because this approach allows central

administration from a single database, even if some client modules are

located on a distributed machine.
