The LICOS script engine doesn't connect directly to the VSC to get its telemetry. Instead it connects with up to three proxy servers, which in turn expose TCP ports for the script engine. A different set of ports is supposed to be used by each person so that several people can be running LICOS sessions on the same Linux machine at the same time. The set of ports is derived from the proxyPortBase parameter in the \[vsc\] section of the VSC configuration file. You can get a standard VSC config file on lat-hobbit5 from $ONLINE_ROOT/LICOS_ETC/config/vsc_tb.cfg. Your personal value of proxyPortBase must be assigned by an Authority. |

The proxies also dump the telemetry they receive into files. Their locations can be controlled with parameters in the \[paths\] section of the VSC config file. |

Assuming you have your VSC config file in ./vsc.cfg you can start the proxy manager. You can then use its GUI to activate the proxies individually or collectively.
