  1. To start an IRIS session,
    • either run irisstartup; in the Matlab command window,
    • or press the Matlab Start button (bottom left in the Matlab window), and go to Link and Targets → The IRIS Toolbox → Start IRIS session.

    If Matlab failed to save IRIS on the permanent search path during installation, you will need to run the following two commands each time you want to start working with IRIS: addpath C:\IRIS_Tbx; irisstartup; where you replace C:\IRIS_Tbx with your IRIS directory.

  2. To end an IRIS session, and temporarily remove IRIS subfolders from the Matlab search path,
    • either run irisfinish; in the Matlab command window,
    • or press the Matlab Start button (bottom left in the Matlab window), and go to Link and Targets → The IRIS Toolbox → End IRIS session.
  3. To remove all IRIS folders (including other than the currently used IRIS version) permanently from the Matlab search path,
    • either run iriscleanup; in the Matlab command window,
    • or press the Matlab Start button (bottom left in the Matlab window), and go to Link and Targets → The IRIS Toolbox → Remove all IRIS folders from Matlab.
  4. IRIS automatically detects TeX/LaTeX (using TeX's standard kpsewhich program), provided it is properly installed on your computer. Should the automatic detection fail to recognise your TeX/LaTeX installation, you can add the paths manually, see Configuration, start-up and clean-up section in IRIS help.
  5. Courtesy of the U.S. Census Bureau, the X12-ARIMA program, Version 0.3 Build 177, is incorporated and redistributed with IRIS. There is no need to manually download, install and link X12 with IRIS any longer.
