6 Connection Magic Link - Installation and Use
If you are a reporter using a CAT system that uses either the CaseView or Bridge protocol,
you can use the Connection Magic Link (CM Link) software to send data to Bridge Mobile.
For example if you are a Stenocat user, you can output in either CaseView or Bridge protocol
and pick a com port as if you are using cable – the CAT software thinks it is working with a
com port, but CM Link allows that com port to be redirected to the Connection Magic system
through which you can send your realtime data to Bridge Mobile.
You will need to purchase a Bridge Broadcaster.
