Subject: dSPACE note

The following note will be useful if you have trouble downloading a
program to a dSPACE box.

All communication between the Sun computers and the dSPACE boxes is
coordinated by a program called "dsp_daemon" that runs on one of the
Sun servers.  This program occasionally gets into a "bad state" and
does not allow you to download programs.

This can be fixed as follows.  Suppose you are working with dspace04.
Then type:

dcont -c dspace04 -k
dsp_daemon -c dspace04 -u

In most cases, only one of these commands is required.  But, typing
both commands might be safer.

Please let me know if any of the dSPACE boxes are not working.
Thanks.
