Hi Kevin!

You can start new message playback from ACE, but that's about it.  Since ECS
event processing is halted during message playback, ECS won't see the next
ACE command until the next event pass, which won't happen until all the
messages are played back.

Cheers!

I have ECS on a machine downstairs and want to have a remote computer access
the playback features of SPEAK-MESSAGES I want to send ECS commands using
ACE.  Is there anyway to take advantage of the Playback features other than:

REWIND and FAST-FWD and STOP using keyboard-event (Win Button)

I am using ECS 4.0 so I would imagine the DOS key control is out

I am not doing using a phone system so Phone Button is out.

Any Ideas.  ACE will let me send any command to ECS

This would let me access the ECS message playback from any ACE terminal.

Kevin
