Use the following dialog to configure an auto receive set.

Note: In most cases you only need to specify a Program name start tag, and check the fields Accept digits and/or Accept letters.

Main dialog

param

Program name start tag

Use this field to specify the start trigger. The server will look for the start trigger in the file, and when found, check that a valid program/path name is specified following the trigger.

param

Maximum program name length

Use this field to specify the maximum length of the program/path name. This value does not include the length of the start trigger, or any characters between the start trigger and program/path name. If more than the specified number of program/path name characters are found, the additional characters will be ignored.

Specifying a value of 0, will disable name length restriction, allowing a maximum of 255 characters in the program/path name.

param

Accept digits (0-9)

Check this field to allow digits in the program/path name.

param

Accept letters (a-z and A-Z)

Check this field to allow letters (a-z and A-Z) in the program/path name.

param

Accept path delimiter

Check this field to allow the path delimiter character to be included in the program/path name. The path delimiter is defined on the 'Machine Type' setup sheet.

param

Accept environment character

Check this field to allow the environment character to be included in the program/path name. The environment character is defined on the 'Machine Type' setup sheet.
