Conguration
The Conguration section includes subsections:
Stand-alone development
Stand-alone automation
Stand-alone, Master Control File
Before proceeding with stand-alone conguration, you should have already tested FH Flyer operation in
WinMark control mode as described by the Initial start-up section in the Operation chapter.
FH Flyer’s stand-alone mode allows you to work manually (during project development, for example)
and then move to a completely automated, “hands-o” method when Flyer is totally integrated into your
automated marking system.
Stand-alone development
