I'll try that again without the extra characters: Dear Hesham Elhadad Instead of :<WPName>DMCMD := "dmcmd ov /<FileName>"; Try: :<WPName>DMCMD := "dmcmd ov /<FileName> <position>"; where <position> is the overlay position, one of 0,1,2,3,4,5,8,10,12,15. I find it helpful to test syntax using the pref command from the VT100 command line. The equivalent pref command would be (from the WP): pref -<WPName> DMCMD "dmcmd ov /<FileName> <position>" for example to open an overlay in the upper right position on WP5101: pref -WP5101 DMCMD "dmcmd ov /usr/disp/TANK1_ovl 2" Regards, Kevin FitzGerrell Systems Engineer Foxboro New Zealand ------------------------------------ Tel: +64 (9) 573 7690 Fax: +64 (9) 573 7691 > > > > Hesham Elhadad > > <helhadad2004@yah To: foxboro@freeli= > sts.org =20 > oo.com> cc: = > =20 > Sent by: Subject: [foxboro] dmcm= > d through HLBL =20 > foxboro-bounce@fr = > =20 > eelists.org = > =20 > = > =20 > = > =20 > 12/07/2004 04:19 = > =20 > AM = > =20 > Please respond to = > =20 > foxboro = > =20 > = > =20 > = > =20 > > > > Dear List, > > I try to use a couple of dmcmd commands through the sequence logic (by > HLBL).
