Controller Types

Apart from the controllers that are supported and configurable using ToolsTalk 2, there is the capability to show other controller types in the Controller List and some limited information about these. The controllers which aren't configurable can launch the relevant software through ToolsTalk 2, where they can be further configured.

The different controller types are represented with an icon in the All Controllers list.
