seCtion 1: overviewwhat is siM 3 reMote?
SIM 3 Remote is an application that makes it possible to control SIM 3 hardware on a remote computer via an Ethernet
network. Before using SIM 3 Remote it is important to note that SIM 3 Remote is not a standalone measurement software
and does not do anything without connection to actual SIM 3 hardware.
For simplicity we will refer to the siM 3 machine as the local computer and the laptop/desktop as the remote
computer.
SIM 3 Remote is single client only: multiple clients cannot connect to the SIM 3 hardware at the same time.
SIM 3 Remote comes as a bootable live CD. This CD will not make any permanent changes to the SIM 3 machine. When
the SIM is booted without the disc it will be in its normal state.
SIM 3 Remote has been developed as a temporary solution in order to provide added mobility for current SIM 3 systems
while a fully integrated version of the SIM 3 software is currently under development.
