New Emulator Field Description

Field	Description
Configuration File	Specify the path of the virtual machine configuration file.
Log File	Location and path to write the virtual machine log file to.
Name	This field is required. It names the virtual machine instance and will appear in the CHARON-AXP/SMA(+) management menu.
Auto Start	Selecting this option will ensure that the virtual machine automatically starts every time Microsoft Windows starts.
Auto Restart	The virtual machine will be restarted if the CHARON-AXP/SMA(+) software stops for any reason. This option is disabled, unless Auto Start is selected.
Append logfile	If checked then all CHARON-AXP/SMA(+) logging messages will be appended to the log file. Otherwise, at virtual machine start the log file will be truncated.

Example configuration files can be found in the CHARON-AXP/SMA(+) installation directory. All example configuration files are named model.cfg, where model is the virtual machine model name.

There is no limit to the number of virtual machines that can be created and/or run by the CHARON-AXP/SMA(+) virtual machine. However, limitations may be encountered depending on the active license or hardware available in the host system.
