AS you stated, 
With this data on your web page, I would not have been prompted to issue my last post.
Yes, the sim, might be nice, but not all that necessary.
The ability to unlock the MPX Tx, when someone has forgotten their code, or have sold 
their tx,  would be nice .
I do not know too many people that have that "Special" Cable to do that.
 Ernie and Karlton here in the states, are all I know about.
The Pay Pal set up is nice for most, but I will not use it...Shoot me an Address and 
the converted cost, and I can send you a money order or bank draft.
Thanks for what you have done, 
Jack

Just to add, the download version is a 30 day trial version, You only need
the license after the trial period, so you can try it out and see what you
think.

There is also a support issue. I aim to get back to people ina timely
fashion and will be developing the product further.

Re: [RCSE] MPM for Multiplex 4000

2003-10-31 Thread Veronica Merryfield
Jack et al

This product allows you do to a full backup. It won't do individual backups,
but does a full backup each time and detect changes and maintain a tree
structure of of your model programs.

It won't do a full restore yet, but will allow you to restore individual
model programs from the database. In due course, you will be able to restore
your 4000 to a full back that was made in the past (MPM stores a backup
history).

You are able to change the user name and lock code with a licensed version,
together with exporting and importing CIF files that the Multiplex DOS tool
uses.

This gives you the basic backup that is essential if you value your
programs.

Future updates will include a listing feature and restore as mentioned above
without need to change a license.

The DOS tool offers simulation which MPM won't.

Instead, full on screen editing showing signal flow will come as a
licensable version which will offer more than the simulation. This will
allow you to see what you program is doing and there will be a way to drive
your servos (still thinking about the best way to do this).

So, yes, it doesn't offer the simulation functions the DOS tool does, but it
offers backup to keep your data safe, it offers program management and
version control, it offers name and lock code change and will offer full
historical restoration in due course.

I hope this helps you see MPM in a new light, and it does tell me I need to
make additions to the web pages which I was aware of, but many people want
to backup thier data.

This is really good news, However, from what I can see this does not have the same 
basic functionality, as the crapy MPX DOS version.
I want to thank you for your efforts on this project, However, when you get a 
reasonably full package together, I will happily pay the 40 bucks that you are asking.
Thanks
