Using the NRC Java Client Application

Requirements

The NRC Java Client application can be executed on any computer that supports the Java 2 platform and is connected to the network. It is most thoroughly tested with the Sun Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (version 1.4), which can be downloaded freely from http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html. It is recommended that the newest version of the Java 2 Platform be used. Consult your system administrator for more information on running Java on your system.

Running the NRC Java Client

On systems that support automatic execution for known file types, the application can be run by double-clicking the NRCJavaClient.jar file.

Otherwise, from a command prompt, navigate to the directory that contains this file. Type: java –jar NRCJavaClient.jar and press Enter. If the java.exe application is not found in a path pointed to by the PATH environment variable, specify the path on the command line.

Connect to NRC Server Dialog

The first order of business is to make a network connection with an NRC server. This can be done with knowledge of the IP address or DNS-resolvable hostname given to the NRC during the software configuration. The NRC Java Client can attach to multiple NRC servers or the same NRC server multiple times.

When starting the NRC Java Client, the “ Connect to NRC server” dialog box appears. This dialog can be raised at any time by clicking the “ Connect to NRC server” button on the toolbar of the main application window.

Enter the IP address or hostname of the NRC server and the port number in this dialog and click the Enter button or press the Enter key.

Note: the default port number is automatically generated before the dialog appears.
