Data source <Device>
By selection of "Device" the data are read in from the connected terminal. The program attempts
to establish a connection to the unit (PowerLink or SWT 3000) and subsequently loads the data of
the unit into the system memory of the service PC. Subsequently the downloaded data can be pro-
cessed. The program detects from which unit (PowerLink or SWT 3000) the data were read and
automatically changes to the appropriate program level.
Data source <File>
A sub-menu is opened for selecting the file to be loaded.
