Tradar Concepts

Top  Previous  Next

Tradar is made up of both a Client program and a Server program. Both programs can be loaded onto the same computer, but it is also possible to load the Client program onto more than one PC; this allows for a number of PC's in the same office to use Tradar at the same time.

 

A PC can be used in a Server Role, a Client Role or can perform both functions.
