CS-R10
As already pointed out on the Cloning page, PC-to-scanner cloning has much advantages over programming your unit using the keyboard. CS-R10 is DOS software that allows you to edit your scanner's memory off-line. The cloning process up- or downloads the memory contents to or from your unit.
What is CS-R10?
CS-R10 is DOS software, and as far as I know there will be no Windows version released. But it definitely works, and one advantage of DOS software is that it runs on almost any Intel PC, no matter the processor age (a 386 is fine) or memory size.
