HP GKS for OpenVMS
HP GKS for OpenVMS SPD 42.60.09
Device handlers can be developed in HP Fortran and
HP C. For more information on this interface, refer to
the Building a Device Handler System for DEC GKS
and DEC PHIGS manual (Order No. QA-810AK-GZ),
which can be purchased separately.
CONFORMANCE TO STANDARDS
HP GKS is designed to conform to the following stan-
dards:
• NIST Certification-HP GKS has obtained this certifi-
cation and satisfies the requirements of FIPS PUB
120-1.
• ISO 8805 standard GKS for Three Dimensions (GKS-
3D).
• ISO 7942 standard GKS.
• MIT X Window System Version 11 Release 5
(X11R5).
• PEX Version 5.0 and 5.1.
• The FORTRAN binding conforms to the ISO (DIS
8806/1) FORTRAN bind- ing to GKS-3D.

Memory Requirements for DECwindows Motif Support
The minimum supported memory for HP GKS running in
a standalone DECwindows Motif environment, with both
the client and server execut- ing on the same system,
is 32 MB. The memory size suggested for most typical
hardware configurations, however, is 64 MB or more,
depend- ing on the system.
The system configuration and performance require-
ments of DECwindows Motif applications can determine
the memory needed on your system as follows:
• Less memory may be required on the client sys-
tem (where the software is installed and executed)
if the server (component displaying the application)
resides on another system.
• More memory may be required on a system where
improved performance is desired, or where several
applications are running.
OPTIONAL HARDWARE
HP GKS supports a variety of interactive and hard copy
devices. At least one of these devices is required to
display graphics output.
Terminal for DECwindows Motif Clients:
• DECterminal VXT 2000
Terminals:
• VT125 with black and white or optional color monitor
(ReGIS)
• VT240 with black and white monitor (ReGIS)
• VT241 with color monitor (ReGIS)
• VT330 with black and white monitor
• VT340 with color monitor
