Preface
Quick II is a programming software for a Comat BoxX controller. Quick II is required to carry out the
programming and simulation of the Comat BoxX on a computer. It can implement the preparation of a
control program (function diagram) for Comat BoxX.
It can also simulate the operation of the edited programme and display the operation in a clear manner.
This feature enables the accuracy of the edited program to be confirmed. Quick II can execute both
short-distance and remote communication of Comat BoxX, and write an edited program into the
EEPROM of the Comat BoxX.
This issue replaces all previous issues.
Availability, errors and specifications subject to change without notice.
