Note on Interface conflicts:

If the CIGUI32 or CIGuiSII program is set up to use the same serial or IEEE-488 port (any
address) to communicate with the AC source as the CTS 3.0 software, it is not possible to have
both the CTS 3.0 Software and the CIGUI32 or CIGuiSII software running at the same time. This
is due to the fact that both programs would attempt to use the same interface to control the AC
source. If this is the case, close one program before opening the other.

If IEEE-488 is used to control the AC source with the CIGUI32 or CIGuiSII and RS232C is
selected on the CTS 3.0 or vice versa, both programs can be open at the same time but care
should be taken not to control the source from both programs at the same time. This setup is not
recommended however.

For best results, use either program in turn depending on the task at hand (CTS 3.0 for IEC
61000-3 and CIGUI32 or CIGuiSII for IEC 61000-4)
