There are three ways to handle and communicate with the PRGS430

hardware:

-Using the graphical user interface (see Section 2.2)

-Using command line parameters (see Section 2.3)

-Using the PRGS430.dll (see Section 2.4)

Note: this is the fastest way if the PRGS430 should be used in an

in-system program and test environment.
