Parameter Given Information
Seq= The sequence number from 1 to n, where n is a positive number equal to the total number of
startup processes you wish to invoke before running the EliteView platform program.
EV_Flag Distinguishes between EliteView and non-EliteView applications. Acceptable values include:
0 Designates the entry as a “Non-EliteView Windows application.” This means it cannot work
closely with EliteView, but may be initiated within some EliteView commands as an
independent process.
1 Designates an “EliteView Application;” i.e., it follows the set of rules specified by SMC to allow
interaction with other EliteView modules.
Menu_Item This is the text that appears in the menu. An ampersand “&” before one of the letters in the text
designates an Alt-key short-cut command sequence, which you can press to invoke the
corresponding command. This is normally shown on screen with an underline.
Executable The name of the Windows application to be invoked when the corresponding item is selected.
This application program is set as the default application, which means that it is invoked only if
no other definition for an individual device exists.
Optional Parameters Command line parameters of the program. Optional entry.
