The problem is that the system tries to start the BGIPFG and the device is not there. Everything is killed due to this. There are several alternatives of course: The easiest one is change the configuration but this I will not explain it is better that I show you (If you want tell me when you are available and I can pass by) The other solution is to start everything by hand in the following order: /user/biswop/bin/LYNX603_4.0.0/biswLogging.ppc4 & /user/biswop/bin/LYNX603_4.0.0/abSurvey.ppc4 & /user/biswop/bin/LYNX603_4.0.0/abTimingTg8.ppc4 tg8_1 -c Init & /user/biswop/bin/LYNX603_4.0.0/biswTimingUsr.ppc4 & /user/biswop/bin/LYNX603_4.0.0/wscan_datserv & Have a good WE Ana
