How does it work?
Davio library packages are managed with a software application running on a Windows or Mac personal computer. Library packages are loaded into the Davio hardware through a USB connection, network connection or with a Compact Flash Card. Library packages also contain user options or controls that can be configured prior to loading the hardware. Users can create multiple CF cards with different library functions loaded on them and change the function of Davio as needed. This makes it possible to re-configure the function of Davio easily as you transition from stage to stage in a workflow environment.
