| Special Features of XLink Kai Japanese Beta Version |
| |
| ■ Simple Configuration |
| |
It was necessary to configure the settings of the software in detail for the very first time. However, XLink Kai Japanese Beta Version can be configured automatically when installing the software, and no need to do other configuration.
※The configuration can be done separately. |
| |
| ■ Easily to distinguish the usable wireless LAN adapter |
| |
The former XLink Kai cannot automatically distinguish if the wireless LAN adapter can be connected with or not. However, XLink Kai Japanese Beta Version can automatically detect if the wireless LAN adapter can be connected with it or not, when starting up the software. If the adapter cannot correspond with XLink Kai, it will display the error message and the software will not be able to start. Therefore, it should be more easily to distinguish whether the adapter is compatible with XLink Kai or not. |
| |
| ■ Easy Installation |
| |
The way of installation of XLink Kai Japanese Beta Version is very simple and easy. It won't bring any bother to the users. If the user's computer has already installed the English Version of XLink Kai, the user still can install the Japanese Beta Version without uninstalling the English one. |
