MCL-Link is a Windows® based batch communications server for terminals running applications created with MCL-Designer.

MCL-Link communicates with mobile devices via a direct serial, a modem or an Ethernet connection. It allows sending and receiving data to and from terminals. It is a “point to point connection type.

Additionally, MCL-Link is used for synchronizing purposes of the terminal with the host, querying the status of the terminal, the directories and the files structure. File operations such as file lookup, append, copy, rename & execute program are performed as well.
