Main menu

 

The main menu program monitors communication with the Therapist computer and responds accordingly by dispatching whichever feedback/support program is commanded by the Therapist computer.  F1 brings up/drops a help menu display.  Alt-T may be used to bring up a tech support menu used to simplify customer support.

 

 

 

A spinning "propeller" is shown in the upper left corner as a confidence factor (reporting that the program really IS running). The display shows installed Beta/SMR games and is updated by saving the result of the game discovery tool.

 

The Esc key is used to exit the menu program back to the Windows Desktop.

 

The F3 key is used to change the communications channel used to "listen" to the Therapist computer. Pressing F3 causes selection of the "next" available channel and the selected channel to be displayed in the upper left corner (in red). Each F3 press causes the next channel to be selected cyclically. The Ethernet selection is one of the possible communications channels (but needs some extra setup - see the F5 option).

 

Alternately, the F5 key can be used to bring up a menu of channels and Ethernet options.

 

 

On this menu, the appropriate Ethernet port address (which MUST match the therapist preference setting) can be set. 

 

Also, the font used for EGS games can be elected here (for 2-computer setups).  Clicking on the font selection window brings up a selection choice list similar to this:

 

Please experiment with these fonts and find a setting that appeals to you.

 

The F9 key is used to directly call the Game Initialization Tool (and return to the game menu).
