Note: After programming, the software does not need to be running for the pedal to function. If using multiple pedals on one PC, each pedal must be configured separately.

5.2. Multi-System Compatibility

Once programmed on a Windows system, the foot pedal can be used on various operating systems without needing to reinstall or run the configuration software on those systems.
