PDW Support / PDW Command File error
08 Dec 2020, 01:10:11
Hi All,

This is a very poor system at present, so I am open to new suggestions! I currently have a .bat file triggered by PDW that runs a shortcut (admin permissions) to another batch file. This then runs a .vbs script that opens a web page on a second monitor in full screen mode, waits 15 mins and then goes back to another web page.

When I double click the .bat file that PDW activates, everything runs without a hitch. When PDW activates the command file I get an error in the .vbs script. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thank you

Thanks for the help guys,

I'll keep digging and once I get a program built I'll share it right here.

Thanks Steve,
I have had no luck with the email function - I get an error "STARTTLS" or something.

Basically what I have so far is when a filtered message comes through, It triggers a command file. In my command file so far I have the message copied out of a log file in the PDW folder, but I don't know how to get it to update after each message. Then I have the Batch File start a TTS program called MWS Reader 5. Then I am completely lost.

All I want it to is trigger a command file that plays an alarm sound, transfers the message into a TTS program and read it to me.

Thank you very much

Hi Guys,

I am trying to code a Windows Batch File that will set off an alarm and read the filtered PDW message to me via a TTS program. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks
