Reminder: be sure to read the IBCM Principles of Operation and the Lab instructions for some very helpful hints about how to use the simulator effectively!
Executable: vb-ibcm.exe (runs if you have VB)
Install: vb-ibcm-setup.exe (use to install if you don't have VB)
1) If you are working in the ITC lab, then the simulator is installed already. Run it from the menu: Start->S.E.A.S.->IBCM Simulator. It is also installed in Olsson 001 of course.
If you are working at home or on a machine that does not have it installed, try the following steps in order.
2) If you are working on a machine that has Visual Basic 6.0 installed (e.g. in the lab or in a public PC lab),
then click on the first link to get the smaller (44KB) file called vb-ibcm.exe. Try just double-clicking
to run this. Or, if that fails or you want to have a copy on your machine's disk, then download this file to a
suitable directory (on a public machine this might be C:\LOCALDATA) and start Windows Explorer. Double-click on
the vb-ibcm.exe file and it will run the simulator.
3) If step 2 fails, then click on the second link to get a larger (1.8 MB) file called vb-ibcm-setup.exe.
Create an empty directory and put this file in that, then double-click on it in Windows Explorer. The file is a
self-extracting archive that will now extract its component files. One of these files is called setup.exe;
double-click on it and IBCM will be installed on your computer. Then you can execute the simulator by double-clicking
on vb-ibcm.exe (which was part of the archive and is now on your disk), or you can find the IBCM program group
that has (hopefully) now been installed off your "Start->Programs" key on the lower left of your screen.
