                              DEMO
                    Installation Instructions
                   (for Windows 98, 95 and NT)          April 15, 1998
----------------------------------------------------------------------

1. To install Version 1.0.8 of the MTV Builder application, 
   run Install.exe on the installation disk. When prompted for a 
   license number, leave it blank to install a demo copy.

2. To run the MTV Builder application, simply double click on the 
   MTV Builder icon labeled "MTV Builder V1" on the desktop. The 
   installer also adds the MTV Builder shortcut to your Startup Menu.

3. The MTV Builder user interface is an easy to use, toolbar-based 
   and menu-based interface. The toolbar uses standard buttons, and 
   shows tool tips describing the function of each button along 
   with key-stroke shortcurts. Menu selections and right-click 
   capabilities complement the toolbar buttons.

   Some double-click actions and right-click actions are defined. 
   Some of the buttons and input areas do show a description of thier 
   function when the cursor is over the button or when a part is 
   selected. The description shows up in the status bar (at the 
   bottom of the window). 

4. Online help is provided. Click the question mark on the 
   toolbar to access online help or browse help outside the 
   MTV Builder application by accessing it via the Start Menu.

5. Currently, the interface allows the user to specify message, 
   group, field, and delimiter formats and properties for 
   byte-based, bit-based, and mixed format messages. You can 
   specify both ordered and unordered messages, but code 
   generation currently supports only ordered messages.

   Report generation capabilities are provided for messages and 
   message sets. Several different reporting perspectives are 
   provided.

   Code and test case generation capabilities are also provided. 
   The tool generates Ada '95 code to provide the message
   translation and validation, and testing capabilities. This 
   Ada '95 code should run on any hardware platform where an 
   Ada '95 compiler is available. Tested platforms include 
   Windows 95/NT and Sun Solaris using the ObjectAda(tm) and 
   GNAT(tm) compilers.

   MTV Server application generation capabilities are also 
   available upon request. These stand alone servers provide 
   the MTV functions via one of two standard interface mechanisms:
   CORBA or Database technologies. This capability requires 
   the purchase of either ORBexpress(tm) and/or ADA_SQL_Connect(tm)
   both available from Objective Interface Systems.
   Call Accel for a demo of these MTV Builder add-on products.

6. The MTV Builder tool allows you to specify message formats and 
   generate Ada 95 code. This generated code CANNOT be compiled 
   and tested UNTIL the MTV foundation code is compiled into your 
   Ada library. This foundation code was copied during installation 
   to "c:\MTVBLD\CodeFoun". 

7. The installation comes with a sample message set. To access the 
   sample message set, follow the following steps.
    a. Run the MTV BUilder tool
    b. Select CHANGE MASTER MESSAGE SET under the MANAGER menu
    c. In the open dialog, double click on the samples folder
    d. Click on the file msgsets.mtv and click open
   This should provide some instant insight into the look and 
   feel of the tool.

8. Please provide any feedback and/or problem descriptions to 
   Charles Plinta at Accel Software Engineering.
