Technical support / Correction to TRILOGI on Linux
« on: July 26, 2007, 05:06:11 AM »
Correction:
 Wine uses /home/username/.wine/drive_c as drive c:
    This is where TRILOGI will be extracted to.

dosemu uses /home/username as drive D:

Use konqueror to copy/move the TRILOGI folder from /home/username/.wine/drive_c/TRILOGI
to
/home/username/TRILOGI

alternately, you can launch dosemu, goto D:, and then
"cd .wine\drive_c\TRILOGI" before running tl.bat

I'll try to check back a few times to answer any questions.

also, if your feeling brave you could use nomachine(nx) or vnc to program and monitor the PLC over the internet. I'll have to try this soon.

Technical support / Linux and T100MD888+ Working Perfectly.
« on: July 25, 2007, 08:24:49 PM »
Perfect Working System using old DOS version of Trilogi and a T100MD888+ with LINUX.
(DOS TRILOGI Ver 4.13.exe)


1) Using kubuntu 6.06 LTS, launch adept

2) Install Wine.
(this will be needed to run win32 base winzip self extractor: DOS TRILOGI Ver 4.13.exe )

3) Install DOSEMU

4) run "winecfg" to configure wine. I'm not sure anything needs to be changed. you might be able to skip this step.

5) use "sudo kwrite" to edit /etc/dosemu/dosemu.conf Serial Port Settings section and un-comment this line and use /dev/ttyS0 if PLC is plugged into com1:
$_com1 = "/dev/ttyS0"
# $_com2 = "/dev/ttyS1"
# $_com3 = "/dev/ttyS2"
# $_com4 = "/dev/ttyS3"

6) Extract DOS version of PLC Programming application using console to run
"wine "DOS TRILOGI Ver 4.13.exe"".
(keep inner most quotes)
 A Winzip dialog will pop up for extraction to c:\
(extract and close)

7) run "dosemu" (you are now running DOS) and enter "D:" at the C: prompt.  (D: was automatically  mapped to your linux home directory where you just extracted TRILOGI.)

eight) "cd TRILOGI"   (smilies issue with eight)
(or navigate to the dir where the tl.bat is located.)

9) type "tl [enter]"  :)

I just transfered and ran the demo.pc4 and setlcd.pc4 with no issue. monitor mode works fine too.

Good Luck
Ken Wood
