Switch. Mileages will only be returned if the PC*MILER Version trip parameter is valid. The default name must match one of the key names.

Be careful of editing the Key Names like [PCMiler 150], these values have to match those set in srv32.ini under [multiversion].

Step 4.3: Edit \AlkMvs\Pcmmv.ini to point to your various instances of PC*MILERTC/PIP Connect.

If you are going to run each instance of PC*MILERTCP/IP Connect on a single PC, you can skip this step.

Pcmmv.ini is used to locate the various instances of PC*MILERTCP/IP Connect. By default Pcmmv.ini is pointing to local copies via the loop back address. If you are using multiple PCs you will have to change the loop back (127.0.0.1) to the IP address or the computer name of the remote PC. If you are having trouble connecting on a computer name, you will have to map that computer’s name to its IP address in C:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.

If your system has a conflict with the default port number, you will have to change the port number in pcmmv.ini and in the batch file that is used to start up PC*MILERTCP/IP Connect.

(See Step 4.4).

Step 4.4.

The various instances of PC*MILERTC/PIP Connect need to be started before starting the PC*MILERAS/400 Multiple Version Switch executable. The best way to do this is via a batch file. A working copy of one is installed in C:\AlkMvs called StartMvs.bat.

StartMvs.bat is setup for running all four versions of PC*MILER on the same PC. If you do not have a particular version, you will have to remove it from StartMvs.bat.

Note: Each version of pcmsock.exe has been renamed with its version number appended so that the versions are distinguishable in the Windows Task Manager.

Note: The second parameter passed to pcmsock1x.exe is the Port Number, if you change these values you must change the values in \alkmvs\pcmmv.ini.
