CORIOview & CORIOgrapher Help
Getting started with CORIOgrapher™
When you first open CORIOgrapher, you see the Home window.
- If you've set up your hardware already, you can connect to your CORIOview™ and get information about its configuration of modules.
- If you haven't set up your hardware yet, you can create a configuration offline, or, if you have one, you can load a configuration from a file. You can save your configuration, and send the configuration to your CORIOview later. You can also use saved configurations to configure other CORIOview units.
