Installation

Serial number information on the License Assignment Card in the Order Confirmation email includes:

  • The Basic serial number
  • Additional serial number for T-RemoteControl

If any of this information is missing or incorrect, please contact your Thoroughbred dealer.

T-RemoteControl needs the terminal configuration file TCONFIGW to display data correctly on your terminal. You may install T-RemoteControl in a directory where TCONFIGW resides or you may copy or link TCONFIGW to the installation directory. A TERM.MAP file is needed either in the installation directory or in /usr/lib/basic to select a terminal table using your TERM environment variable. Use the cd command to make the installation directory your current directory for the remaining steps.

cd to the TSREMOTE path in your Basic home directory.

Use the install utility:

./install

The following screen displays.
