MagniLink PCViewer update - really good gets even better!


We are now releasing the version 10.1.8.0 of our software MagniLink PCViewerTM. This is an innovative software for Windows based PCs that is used to display the image from a MagniLink reading camera system. The software controls the reading camera’s features, such as magnification, colours and brightness, and provides the user with the facility to make individual adjustments for the best possible experience.
