HLA Setup Tutorial
As of Telestra version 2.0, HLA Communications Environment setup and configuration is handled
through the RMS web interface. User manipulation of HLA settings is performed in the same
manner as all other Configuration actions, outlined in the RMS Setup Tutorial, above.
IMPORTANT: Other than uploading and installing an RTI, changes to all other HLA Configu-
ration settings will require a restart of Telestra’s HLA Communications software. When you opt
to commit these changes, all Federates will resign from any/all joined Federations, and the soft-
ware will restart. All Federates must then be told to rejoin their respective Federation(s) through
the Remote Control Interface.
See “Remote Control Interface Commands and Responses” in this chapter for more information.
ASTi recommends against changing your HLA Configuration during actual HLA exercises.
Step 1: Uploading and Installing an RTI
There is no HLA RTI pre-installed on the Telestra system prior to shipping.
In order to access the HLA section of the Configuration utility, the Telestra system must have an
HLA-enabled Options File. HLA-enabled Telestra systems will be represented in the RMS Serv-
ers frame with the following icon:
Note the word “HLA” in the icon. Contact
ASTi at
[email protected] for more information
about obtaining Telestra Options files.
1. Click the “Config.” option in the RMS Menu bar.
