====== CFLink Command Builder ======
===== What is CFLink Command Builder? =====
CFLink CommandBuilder  is a guiDesigner plugin that will be included with all future versions of guiDesigner. 

It is designed to make using iViewer to control CommandFusion hardware as simple, quick and as straight forward as possible.\\ CFLink Command Builder automatically creates CFLink commands for you based on what CommandFusion devices have been discovered on your network based on a device discovery export from our System Commander software.



===== How to install =====
If you have downloaded the latest [[http://www.commandfusion.com/software/guidesigner|guiDesigner from our website]], then the guiDesigner plugin should already be installed.

If you have an old version of guiDesigner that you do not wish to upgrade for some reason, or the plugin does not seem to be installed be default for you, then you may follow these instructions to install the CFLink Command Builder:
  * Download the CFLink Command Builder DLL (link)
  * Save it to the ave it to the ''Program Files/CommandFusion/plugins'' folder (Folder location depends on where guiDesigner was installed to).

===== How to use =====


Using System Commander software, export the discovered devices via the File > Export menu item.\\

System Commander will then ask you if you are sure, click ''OK''. It will then begin exporting your device information, this can take a few minutes and the program may appear to hang at this point, but this is normal.

A prompt will pop up asking you for a project name, enter an appropriate name and click ''OK''.\\
