3.2 Adapting the installation settings
The setup of the PCU Base Software also contains the setup.ini configuration file which can
be parameterized before calling the setup. Note that some settings are only suitable for test
purposes.
Before you adapt the settings in this file, you should copy the original file.

documentation.

Base Software is aborted.
