Transaction Server for ClearPath MCP automatically starts the SINGLEPOINT program when min_copies is set to 1.

During initialization, the interface software reads the configuration file and waits for a connection to its port from a valid Operations Sentinel server. When an initial connection is made, SP-AMS responds with a usercode and password. Then the interface program loads the filter file and sends a message to the Operations Sentinel server identifying itself and its ready status.

If the interface program cannot find the filter file, it uses default values and continues initializing.
