14-3 Running the Server Software

14-3-1 What is the Server Software?

The server software (CompSvr.exe) controls the ID database (relationship between feeder IDs

and component barcodes) and component table (relationship between component barcodes

and component codes). It also contains a barcode creation software program as a part of its

function to enable creation of command, feeder and component barcodes.

Here explains how to run the server software.
