Procomm Scheduler

[Kodaker]

I have a need to dial into 10 various Meridian switches all over the country to do a DN and TN dump on a weekly basis. Does anyone have ready script for PROCOMM to use the scheduler that allows me to set the date and time for each location. 3 of the switches uses direct connect the rest are dial up...

If you already have a script you are using day to day, then you could use Windows scheduler to start up Procomm and a certain script.

pw5.exe CONNECT DATA "entryname" script.wax

where "entryname" is the Connection Directory entry name exactly as it appears and script.wax is the name of the script that will log in to the PBX, send commands, etc. You will need to include the path to pw5.exe (located in the Programs directory under your Procomm install) unless you have added this directory to the path.

I would like to use Procomm Scheduler so that when one location is finished it will start the script for the second location and so on....Just wondering if some-one has done this before....This would certainly be easier

best way to do that is to do a call proc during a master script..

something like this

proc main

  call proc1
    pause 1
  call pause2
    pause 1

endproc

proc proc1

    atdt xxx

endproc

proc proc2

    atdt 12345
   capture on
    transmit "logi^M"
   capture off

endproc

just make each site a new proc, then use procomm scheduler to run the script or have the script run 7/24 with a time of day trigger.. if you use comma delimited files for your data source the master script will never need to change..
