portable devices.
The ADWIN software is the official remote control software from D.Marchiori. It is available
for Windows and Unix platforms.
The MPS49 Remote Protocol Manual describes the communication protocol, and allows
software developers to integrate communication with the ADTS inside custom-made
software.
