3.10.3 PC Control and Touch Control
With the PC Control software the Program version, the Serial
number of the USB dongle ("authorization plug") and the Control
remote box are shown. If no dongle is connected, "demo version" is
displayed instead of the serial number. The Control remote box is the
interface at which, for example, lines for controlling a Sample Processor
during the determination sequence can be set and scanned
automatically (see Section 6.2). The first remote box to be recognized
after system start-up will always be used as the control remote box.
Titrando 1/4 means that the remote box is connected to MSB
connection 4 on Titrando 1 (name of the Titrando).
