Main Changes from V1.0 to V1.1
■ Main Panel Window
• Instead of the former Parameter Link function, there are now two functions: a Global Link function
that links parameters within all DMEs in a zone and a Local Link function that links parameters
within a single DME unit. (→ page 73)
• The Synchronization function can now not only send data from DME Designer to the DME unit,
but can also synchronize by reading data from the DME unit. (→ page 75)

function. (→ page 80)
