CFC-Client*

With the CFC client, the BX device offers the option of copying the complete memory content of a BX Controller. The data from the memory are saved in a BIN file and can be loaded into an identical controller.

The CFC client runs on Windows 9x, NT, 2000 and XP and is completely independent of TwinCAT.
