 ===Multiple devices===
-When required to read multiple power supply devices simultaneously, you'll need DIS3 version 2.2 or higher. This version of the program will store also the serial port name to which the device is connected and the window position for each set of settings. This version has also an association for files with the extension **//.DIS3set//**. Opening files with this extension will start the DIS3 program and cause it to use the filename as the name of set of settings to be used. The program DIS3 is enabled to create **//shortcuts//** on the desktop which are actually empty files with the name of the set of settings and the required file association. Opening these shortcuts will open the DIS3 program with the requested set or create a new set in case it doesn't exist yet. The shortcuts can be opened by double-clicking the filename or by righ-clicking it and choose '//Open//' from the pop-up menu.
