    Desktop Configuration Utility (DXU) Datalogic DXU is a unified device configuration utility and firmware update utility. DXU can connect directly to the DL-Axist that connects either directly to a PC via USB or remotely over a network, either via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. DXU reports information about currently connected devices.

To configure a connected device, you simply click its button under Available Devices to load its configuration into DXU. To return to the DXU main window, click the Back button (generally, a leftward pointing arrow in a circle).
