9.10 Frequently Asked Questions
9.10.1 How do I configure the module?
The PTQ-PDPMV1 requires a simple text-based configuration file to make it
operational.
9.10.2 Is a .MDC available for configuration of the module?
Yes. The CD-ROM that ships with the module should have a version for both
Concept 2.5 and 2.6 in the PTQ-PDPMV1 directory.

communication device you should investigate other members of the ProSoft
Technology family such as the ProLinx gateway solutions.

The PTQ-PDPMV1 module supports the 140CPU67160 Hot Standby processor.
