Chapter Data Communication Data communications capabilities let you transfer data between two CASIO PV Units, between a PV Unit and a BN-10/BN-20 Unit, or between a PV Unit and a BN-10A/BN-20A/BN-40A Unit. You can also receive data from a CASIO SF, CSF, or NX Series Unit, and communicate with a personal computer using PC sync for Windows.
