122.1ExerciserEICMFG::BURKEJim Burke, @UFCTue Oct 01 1991 19:0410
    An automated Exerciser would be extremely useful.
    Ideally, two processes would exchange data over a looped-back line.
    
    One or other of these programs could also talk to the
    Utility/Simulator, thus giving a semi-automated Exerciser.
    
    Also note that these programs would make excellent examples for the
    documentation.

122.2Better quality diagrams in docs EICMFG::BURKEJim Burke, @UFCTue Oct 01 1991 19:064
    Some of the line-art diagrams are a bit naff. Nice to have them done in
    proper graphics.

122.3Bookreader documentationEICMFG::BURKEJim Burke, @UFCTue Oct 01 1991 19:359
    		Documentation in BOOKREADER format ?
    		------------------------------------
    This is a definite inclusion for the next release/update. 
    
    I've already done this, so if anyone wants advance copies of the docs
    in this format, then let me know.

122.5Double-sided printingEICMFG::BURKEJim Burke, @UFCFri Nov 15 1991 13:449
    
    Re: Double-sided printing of documents.
    
    To do this, the VaxDoc switch "/device=blank_page" should be appended.
    
    Next Release will include this.
    This also applies to Simatic documents.

122.6New Teleperm functions,...EICMFG::BURKEJim Burke, @UFCTue Dec 03 1991 18:0114
    1.	A more recent specification of the 3964 protocol has two REPLY
    	messages which are currently not supported. (Vax Teleperm returns
    	UNSOL_MSG to these). These messages should be supported - They are:-
    		*  REPLY to a "Sign of life" message from the PLC.
    		*  REPLY to a "Determination of the external computer device 
    		   code" message from the PLC (ie. a "who are you" message).
    
    2.	The Teleperm build command file should de-assign TLP$SYSTEM. 
    	Note: this does not affect the user (internal use only).
    	[this also applies to Simatic]
