Mark Dumond contributed a new application to the Cassandra Project archive
recently. It's a client/server app that allows remote access to the Foxboro
ICCAPI without having to run one of those X emulators. See Mark's note below
for a little more details on this utility.

You can download it from the Cassandra web site with this link:

    http://www.thecassandraproject.org/archive2.html#config

and look for Remote Control Configurator. It seems like a cool tool, I will
have to find some time to try it out.

Thanks, Mark!

Subject: Utility submittal

Here is a submittal for a fairly sophisticated and useful package that we
would like to add to the Cassandra project's utilities:

Remote Control Configurator
  
Features:

Remote ICC Access: Provides ICC Functions from a networked, Windows-Based
PC, without using X-Windows emulation software (like Exceed). The
implementation is basically a client/server setup, and is essentially a
Visual-Basic GUI for Foxboro's ICCAPI. This also works very well with
WP70/AW51x hybrid systems.

Windows Look and Feel: Provides familiar Windows "Look and Feel," such as
copy and paste functionality for parameter entry, and Tree-Views for
Compound-Block browsing. 

Multiple Simultaneous ICC Sessions: Allows more than one ICC session per
AW/AP host, unlike the standard ICC, which only allows one session per host.
There can be as many open sessions as the number of CPs on the system. 

Cross-Referencing: Provides Cross-Referencing abilities. Any Foxboro block
can be cross-referenced to show all other blocks, displays, and historians
that are connected to it, even while editing the block (This is not
available on standard Foxboro ICC).

For more information on it, see the attached "Features.doc" document. It
includes some program snapshots.

We have been using this package and enhancing it for two years for internal
use (here at FeedForward), and thought that it would be useful for others.
In particular, the cross-referencing abilities.
