Users Manual for Tactical Interface System.

Abstract

This users manual describes the actions necessary to operate and install the software that comprises the Tactical Interface System (TIS), and documents the usage of the TIS software baseline X002.000, dated 3 February 1983. The TIS software, executing in the context of the Virtual Memory System (VMS) Version 3.0 operating system on a Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) VAX-11/780 processor, provides terminal and batch mode users the capabilities necessary to access and use the AN/GYK-12 Programming Support System (PSS). The TIS software provides the processing necessary to interface the PSS to the VAX-11/780, and allows TIS users to use the job execution facilities of the PSS software. The TIS software interfaces VMS users to the PSS through the Support System Interface Module (SSIM) hardware. The SSIM hardware interface is capable of supporting an AN/GYK-12 computer directly or an emulation of the AN/GYK-12 computer on the Microprogrammable Multiprocessor (MMP) system. The TIS software supports one or two SSIM devices, interfacing the VMS users to one or two Programming Support Systems simultaneously.
