 This protocol is designed mainly for enabling bi-directional corrections loops with CNC bending machines with the measuring center as the master data center.  It can be used for importing MASTER data from benders that support this feature.

 ==Networking Issues==
-<ul>
 <li>'''STANDARD LAN CONNECTION:''' The protocol requires a standard network connection between the bender and the measuring center running Supravision.  In many cases, we place our Benderlink software between Supravision and the bender that never has supported the SVNET protocol.  The protocol requires that both computers have access to a shared folder over the network.

 ==History==
-<ul>
 - The older versions of the DOS-based Supravision software did not support SVNET communications.  It was a later addition by Foad Rekabi.
@@ Line 86: / Line 86: @@
 - Not all versions of the measuring center software packages have the SVNET protocol feature support it properly.  It is important that users check their version of Supravision to be sure that what they are using a version of Supravision that uses SVNET properly.  This is true for early versions of the DOS and Windows versions of Supravision.
