Navigation:  BREIN configuration > Central storage folder > Brein_autostart.ini

This is a text file with a list of program modules that should be run parallel to BREIN. When you enter the name of a module in the brein_autostart.ini file, brein.exe will check if this program is running already. If not, the module will be started. All listed programs must be present in the BREIN program folder.

The mechanism to check if a module is running is this: Brein.exe looks up in the folder live_signals (located in the brein program directory) if there is a certain file present. The file named to be looked for is the module name with extension *.alv – in the case of brein_cleaner.exe the expected filename is brein_cleaner.avg. If the file is missing, Brein.exe will start the missing module. In any case the

*.alv file is deleted. All the BREIN modules write after  regular time intervals their *.alv file to the live_signals directory. This way Brein can check if a module is active and need not to be started.

Please note that BREIN does not close the programs listed in autostart.ini when it is shutdown. You have to close these program manually if you want to stop them.
