    4749 * ''-p [priority]'': Needs root privileges. Kernel priority level for waveform processes, see Performance Notes. ''Default'': 20 
    4850 * ''-d [debug_level]'': Sets platform debug level. Currently only 2 modes are supported, level=0 or level!=0, where the first means normal operation and the second prevents EXEC daemon to kill processes which violated real time policies. ''Default'': 0

     51 * ''-r [fifo_report]'': File where the platform will log (in columns, for Matlab compatibility) the instantaneous waveform internal fifo utilization (in kilobytes). ''Default'': No report.
