Network Installation

The MTM400 is designed to operate in a networked (TCP/IP) environment. The
network or system administrator may have already configured the TCP/IP
parameters (including the network identity) for the MTM400. If this is not the
case, refer to Appendix A: Network Installation for procedures to configure the
TCP/IP parameters.

Setting the Font Used By the RUI

If the RUI does not show the program names and logs in the correct character set,
first ensure that the correct standard is selected for the broadcast being monitored.
If the characters are still incorrect, you must configure the RUI to use a font that
supports the characters in use.

1.

Locate the file MTM400.INI. This is typically in the Java folder inside the
Windows folder or in your home directory.

This file is formatted in Unix text. If a Unix file-format compatible text editor
(for example, PFE) is not available, edit file in Notepad. Be careful not to add
any new lines; only edit what is there.

2.

Within the MTM400.INI file, change UnicodeOn=false to UnicodeOn=true,
save the file, and restart the RUI.

3.

The RUI will attempt to select a suitable font installed on the system. If the
displayed characters are still incorrect, close the RUI and reopen
MTM400.INI.

4.

Change the UnicodeFont=Arial Unicode MS section to the name of the
TrueType font you want to use, for example UnicodeFont=MS Gothic. Save
the file and restart the RUI.

The default Arial Unicode MS is shipped with many Microsoft products and
operating systems; it includes the whole Unicode character set. This font provides
the best compromise to display the non-English program names and the English
elements of the user interface. If this font is unavailable, similar fonts are
commercially available, for example from Bitstream Inc. (www.bitstream.com).

The preceding instructions relate to running the RUI under the Microsoft Java
Virtual Machine. Some users choose to run the WebMSM under the Sun Java
Virtual Machine, however, this is an unsupported configuration. In this case, the
user should see the Sun documentation relating to modifying ‘font properties’. The
exception is when the RUI is integrated into the MLM1000. In this case, refer to
the user manual (Tektronix part number 071-1433-xx) that accompanies the
MLM1000.
