The CX-Simulator can send/receive FINS commands to nodes (the CPU Unit
itself, application programs using FinsGateway, or the CPU Unit for Fins-
Gateway) in the computer using network communications instructions in the
CPU Unit. This capability enables debugging of network communications with
the CPU Unit itself or the CPU Unit for FinsGateway as the tentative commu-
nications target.
