6.1  Software configuration

6.1.1  General notes

How to configure the software for device communication.

Before the program can send data to and receive data from the device, it is necessary to add 
elements to a project structure. The project structure is built in the PACTware™ Project pane. 
The Project pane is on the left side of the window.

This procedure will open the communication port, but does not start the communication with the 
device.
