Configure Mode

In configure mode, you can modify the ProcessLinx Options and Settings
from the main window. ProcessLinx does not communicate with OPC Servers
in configure mode.

Configure.

Changing from runtime to configure mode will disestablish all OPC tag items
and Groups and stop all communication with the OPC Servers. You can also
