Using the Machine Status Monitor Program Type C:\RPCX>STMX and press the Enter key to make the Machine Status Monitor Program stay resident in your computer memory. If there are any changes to the machine status, it displays a message on your computer screen. If the machine status monitor program stays resident in your computer, you can monitor the machine status on your computer screen immediately using the hot-key sequence (Ctrl+Alt+R). To remove the Machine Status Monitor program from your computer memory, type C:\RPCX>STMX/R and press the Enter key. t The RPC works in the environment where your machine is directly connected to your computer. If you are using any printer buffer switches which do not support bi-directional communication between the machine and computer, the program works only in the PC to machine direction and cannot receive machine status information. t The program does not work with printers on a network. t If the RPC conflicts with some application software, exit your application software and then run the RPC. t The RPC may work in the DOS-compatible box screen mode of Windows, however, it is recommended that you completely exit from Windows to the DOS prompt before using the RPC. t The Machine Status Monitor and some other Terminate-and-Stay programs cannot coexist in the computer's memory. If they do not work properly together, use them one at a time. You can suspend the Machine Status monitor with any of the following methods or commands. Type C:\RPCX>STMX/R and press the Enter key. Hold the space bar down while executing the AUTOEXEC.BAT file at DOS startup to prevent the status monitor being loaded as a TSR program. - 15 -
