View USB Device Filter in Client Explorer
The Client Explorer can be used to check what kind of device filters have been
configured for a particular device or rather the way the device can currently be used.
The Client Explorer shows the current status for every USB Device (see also the Client
Explorer section).
Editing the Device Use Local List
Up to version 1.4.x of CP-Link 3 the Device Use Local List has been configured by editing the registry on the client itself
(see also the Using USB devices locally on the client section). Starting with Version 1.5.x of CP-Link 3 the configuration
is done on the host PC. If the client already has had Use Local List entries, they are displayed on the Device Use Local
List tab:
By setting the tick in the Ignore on Client selection box, the client-side configured Use Local List entries are ignored and
it is paid attention to the Use Local List configured on the host PC only.
Clicking the Show / Import to Configuration button shows a list of the client-side configured Use Local List entries:
By using the Import button the selected client-side configured Use Local List entries are being adopted to the list
configured on the host PC.

A client's settings for the “Virtual Serial Ports” area are made on the Serial tab. An asterisk next to the name of the tab
