16 THE REMOTE PC CONTROL SOFTWARE
16.1 INTRODUCTION
The Falcon 15 (ST and FM versions) comes with a powerful and reliable software running on all Microsoft
Windows® o.s. (’95, ’98, ME, 2000, NT and XP) and specially conceived for equipment programming and
control.
It allows either the visualization in real time of the equipment current configuration or its modification by means
of a Bidirectional
(i.e. local) serial link. There is no limit in the number of units which can be controlled from a
single software license.
Examples of typical applications:
- the processor configuration directly in the transmitting site, for example by means of portable PCs (laptop /
notebook)
- the remote control through one of the PC already installed in the control room or in the broadcasting room
(on condition that the connection serial cable does not exceed 20 meters length)
Firmware and software upgrades may be performed by the final user directly at his side.
