Release of REMOTE-CONSOLE 4.0 Remote Access and Control Software Announcing the release of version 4.0 of the REMOTE CONSOLE system software. The new version adds CGA, EGA, and VGA graphics mode capability. It also reduces memory overhead to a tiny 18K bytes, far less than any similar software. Physically small too, all program files fit nicely on a single 360K floppy diskette. The new version provides increased system security by placing password data on removable media, plus an option to restrict remote callers to the execution of selected DOS applications. Improved data compression techniques enhance the already fast screen updates to make you think you are actually seated at the host console. Included is a new diagnostic tool to help end the frustration of connecting two computers. All this, plus a low price tag of only $119, makes the REMOTE-CONSOLE system a best buy for anyone who wants to do remote computing. The REMOTE-CONSOLE software is a remote access and control system designed to link two Personal Computers via modem or by direct cable connection. It provides complete control of the host computer from almost anywhere--the office next door, across town, or around the world. It can be used to run vlrtually any program on an unattended host computer from a remote location. Use it for order entry, remote data base access, customer training and support, even diagnose hardware and software problems remotely. It works with all popular LAN's to extend a network node to where you need it most. A fast file transfer feature allows the REMOTE-CONSOLE user to link Desktop 5.25" and Laptop 3.5" disk drives to copy files at the blinding speed of 115,200 bps. Huge files can be copied in just seconds. It's faster than formatting a floppy in most cases. Remote access and control plus a fast file transfer feature really amounts to two programs for the price of one. Other important features include printer redirection, a "chat mode" scratch pad for conversation, "call back" and "auto-call," unique SHUTDOWN and REBOOT commands to terminate the host program from a remote site, and two special key combinations, one to purge ill behaved programs that can lock out the remote user, and another to refresh the remote screen. A sophisticated password protection scheme keeps intruders out and safeguards your files. Operation is through a set of easy to learn DOS-like commands. There is no complicated installation. Most users have the REMOTE-CONSOLE system up and running in just a few minutes. The REMOTE-CONSOLE system runs on all IBM Personal Computers including the PS/2 and compatibles. It operates with MDA, CGA, EGA, and VGA vi o systems. Occupies as little as 18K bytes while running applications. Requires DOS 3.0 or higher and internal/external 300,1200, 2400 bps, or faster Hayes-compatible modems. COM ports 1, 2, 3, and 4 are supported. The price includes both host and remote sides, a full screen text editor, a handy calendar program, and diagnostic software. It comes on both 5.25" and 3.5" diskettes for user convenience.
