Launching ATOMControl

ATOMControl should be launched like any other standard application: by double-clicking
on the application’s EXE file. ATOMControl does not require any Administrator-level
privileges to run, and can thus be run by any user on the host PC.

At startup, ATOMControl

will scan the host PC’s available COM Ports and will populate

the COM Port drop-down list with the names of the COM Ports that are discovered. The
drop-down list can be repopulated at any time by pressing the Re-Scan COM Ports
button. ATOMControl will not attempt to communicate with the BUC or SSPA until the
Initialize button is pressed.
