Jeremy,
This will work and I understand what you are talking about. What I don't
know how to do is make the Windows machine beep. I could just set a horn in
the remote control room and use the horn.cfg to toggle a cout, but I was
looking for a quick fix.
Thanks
Troy

What I did in the past was to set the horn.cfg to toggle a COUT block with

its
IOMOPT set to 0. Then I had a program that monitored the state of this
block on anan AW and send a message ever the 2nd ethernet to a remote=20
computer to tell it to make a sound when the bit was true (in alarm), and=
=20
turn off when the sound when it was false (alarm acked). =20
I was doing UNIX -> UNIX, but the concept would be the same
to Windows. You would probably want to add a heartbeat also.
