This chapter describes the ROCLINKâ„¢ 800 Configuration software
(ROCLINK 800) you use to configure and monitor ROC800L Remote
Operations Controllers (ROCs) and the dynamic user interface.
1.1 ROCLINK 800 Software Basics
ROCLINK 800 Configuration software enables you to monitor,
configure, and calibrate Remote Operations Controllers (ROCs). Remote
Automation Solutions provides the software and user documentation on a
CD-ROM.
ROCLINK 800 is designed for ease of use. Drop-down menus simplify
accessing the functions provided by the software. Dialog boxes and drop-
down list boxes (â–¼) help to direct selections and data entry. You can
perform actions with the keyboard or a pointing device, such as a mouse.
Refer to User Interface Basics (located in this chapter) for a description
of the user interface.
You access help screens either from the Help menu or in a context-
sensitive fashion pressing the F1 key when your cursor is in a field. This
feature makes it easy to access on-line information for any ROCLINK
800 topic.
You can build custom displays for the ROC that combine both graphic
and dynamic data elements, and then use these displays to monitor the
operation of the ROC either locally or remotely.
The software also provides multiple levels of security for controlling
access to ROCLINK 800 functions, as well as the ROC database.

1.2 Computer Requirements
ROCLINK 800 works on most compatible personal computers (PCs)
running Windows
®
operating systems. The PC can be a desktop or a
portable computer, but must meet the following minimum requirements:
 Pentium-class processor (233 MHz or greater recommended).
 DVD-ROM drive.
 Windows 7 (32-bit and 64-bit).
 Windows 8 (32-bit and 64-bit).
 Windows 10 (32-bit and 64-bit).
 Windows Server 2012
 64 MB of RAM (random access memory).
 SVGA color monitor, 800 by 600 pixels, small fonts.
 105 MB of available hard disk space depending on operating system
and revision level.
 EIA-232 (RS-232) serial connection or USB-to-serial adaptor, a
TCP/IP connection, or a dial-up modem connection.
