   System Requirements

   HercGUI works best with the the SDL version of Hercules
   4.x Hyperion.  The older 3.x series of Hercules does not
   have many of the features that the newer SDL version of
   Hercules 4.x Hyperion has. 

   One of the features the older 3.x series of Hercules is
   missing is the ability to properly report individual CPU
   Percentages for the new HercGUI CPU Percents pane.  When
   you use a 3.x version of Hercules you do not see any CPU
   Percentages.  When you use the SDL version of Hercules
   4.x Hyperion however, HercGUI's CPU Percents pane correctly
   shows the percent busy for each individual processor engine.


The HMC input area ("Command ==>" line) is not enabled until the power-on process has completed, which is not considered complete until certain status messages are first received (such as the end of the current device status cycle as well as the size of mainstor (MAINSIZE), etc), which very old versions of Hercules do not provide.

Bottom line: the current version of HercGUI is incompatible with the version of Hercules you are using.  You need to switch to a more modern version of Hercules, such as the 4.x series of SDL Hyperion.
