Lesson 1.3: Recompile the PDS RAM and verify the HowTo custom action

This lesson guides you through the final steps in adding the custom action and parameters to the Sample PDS RAM.

Procedure

  1. Be sure that there are no active connections between the Sample PDS RAM, CARMA, and the host system. Any active connections could cause CARMA or the RAM to act abnormally.
  2. Recompile the FEL.SFELSAMP(CRASPDS) member.
  3. Restart the server.
  4. In the client, reconnect to CARMA and to the Sample PDS RAM.
  5. Now, expand the Sample PDS RAM down to a particular CARMA member.
  6. When you right-click on the CARMA member, you should be able to select Custom > HowTo.
  7. The HowTo action dialog box opens and should have empty text fields and prompts for the four parameters you defined on the Sample PDS.
