2. General Information
2.1 Extent of this Manual
This manual is for the software enabling the remote control of the CD 44 System Controllers
using PC software (remote software). If the controllers are equipped with different functions,
this will be specially indicated.
This manual supplements the manual that was provided with the Controller itself (hardware
manual), therefore you will not find any detailed descriptions of the individual features (i.e.
of the filters). When such features are mentioned, you will find references to the relevant
pages in the hardware manual. Additional functions that are only available using the
software are described in detail in this manual.
Caution
Please observe the chapter “General Safety Instructions” in the hardware manual for the
K&F CD 44. This is especially important for the connections and the installation location of
the controller.

actual connectors, you can select if you want to connect a digital or analogue signal to the
inputs or you can create a mono-sum of the inputs 1 and 2.

provides an overview of the links. See Chapter Link Manager on page 35.
