Overview

mosCura Configurator is a tool that can be used to create communication protocols among different tools in the production cycle.

In the configurator, there are options to create a totally new configuration from scratch and export it into a CSV file, or to import an existing configuration in order to validate and update the existing configuration in the machine.

In the picture below is an example of a Configurator with a finished configuration:

  • Finished configuration
