Before we had CS-40 Setup Manager, you had to connect all devices from CS-40 to all Slave devices with BioStar 2 to check whether the installation was correct. Even though the installation size was huge, there was an exception.

    But from now, you can check your centralized system is correctly installed or not without Internet connection via CS-40 Setup Manager.
