1.3.6 Module – Device

A Device Module file enables inter-operability and communication between the controller and a specific

device. An example of this type of vendor device module would be one created specifically for the

iDirect Evolution 8000 Modem.

1.3.7 Module – Function

A Function Module enables specific unique functions in the controller. An example of a function module

is the Step Track Module.

More details on the software architecture can be found in Chapters 4, 6 and 7.
