Parameterace_mode
TypeBoolean
Valuetrue or false


This statement enables the ACE mode if the CHARON-VAX license permits it. If this statement is omitted from the CHARON-VAX configuration file and the license permits it, "true" is the default, otherwise "false" is the default. For test purposes the ACE mechanism can be disabled with:

set cpu ace_mode=false


Info

"set cpu ace_mode=true" is ignored when the license does not permit ACE operation.

The CHARON-VAX log file displays the status of the ACE option.

The ACE mode is disabled when the host system does not meet the minimum physical requirements for this operation. If the emulator appears to not run at its normal performance, check the log file for a change in the ACE mode and verify that sufficient host resources, especially memory, are available.

Parametercontainer
TypeText string
Value

A string specifying a file name to store the content of the EEPROM.

Example:

set eeprom container="vx6k610.rom"

This command enables EEPROM parameters (e.g., default boot drive) to be automatically saved to a specified file. The EEPROM file is created in the directory in which CHARON-VAX starts. The EEPROM file is created or overwritten each time any parameter relevant to the EEPROM content is changed.

(info) it is recommended to specify the full path to this file



Example

set eeprom container="C:\Charon\my_virtual_system.rom"
