Java Runtime Environment (JRE) Requirements
for MPC

Raritan recommends using Java® Runtime Environment (JRE) version
1.5 for optimum performance but MPC will function with JRE version
1.4.2_05 or greater (with the exception of JRE 1.5.0_02). JRE 1.6 is also
supported but has not been fully tested.

Determine your version of the JRE from the Java website:
http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml.

You may need some configuration depending on your OS and browser.
Configuration instructions are provided with the JRE download.

Note: Modem use is not supported with Raritan's Dominion KX101.

Important: When launching MPC from a browser, it is highly
recommended that you disable the Java Applet caching.

Although no actual problems have occurred when Java caching is turned
on, some non-impacting Java exceptions have occurred. Generation of
these Java-exceptions can appear in the Java Applet Console window
and may degrade performance.

For Linux/UNIX environments, the Java Control Panel is located in the
JRE's bin directory; the location varies based on where JRE was installed
by your Linux/UNIX administrator.

Tip: It is also recommended that you clear the Java cache.

¾

To disable Java caching and clear the cache (use these

steps with Microsoft Windows XP and JRE 1.5.0):

1. From the Start menu, click Control Panel.
