INSTALLINGM300SOFTWAREINQNXSYSTEM
Once QNX is setup and is connected to another node (system), the M300 software can then be
copied from the other system. Follow these steps to install the M300 software.
1. Create the ‘/sea’ directory. As root type mkdir /sea at the command prompt. Next, as root type
chmod 777 /sea to set the proper permissions.
2. We have two directories where we keep most of the software. The /sea/bin is used for most of the
main M300 software applications. The /sea/bin2 can be used for other software including user
scripts.
3. Copy the ‘/sea’ directory from another node. For example to copy the ‘/sea’ directory from node 1
type cp –pR //1/sea /sea at the command prompt. This will copy the ‘/sea’ directory and the
‘/sea/bin’ directory.
4. Create a ‘.sea’ directory under the user home directory. For example, if the user name is ‘operator’
then login as operator (See “Login” on page 27). You should then be in the directory ‘/home/
operator’. You can type pwd to verify this (print working directory). To create the directory, type
mkdir /home/operator/.sea and then chmod a+w /home/operator/.sea at the command
prompt. This will create the directory and set the necessary permissions.
5. Copy the ‘.photon’ directory from another user. For example to copy the ‘.photon’ directory from
operator on node 1 type cp –pR //1/home/operator/.photon /home/operator/.photon
at the command prompt.
6. Next, copy all of the setup files for the M300 projects. This includes the following directories.
