Point Configuration Manager is a utility provided by CygNet Software to perform the following point related tasks for a specified PNT service.
The Point Configuration Manager utility file (PointCfgMgr.exe) is stored in the CygNet\Utilities directory on your host server.
Alternatively, some utility functions can be performed using command-line options. See Using Command-Line Parameters for more information.
A 64-bit version of the Point Configuration Manager utility (PointCfgMgr64.exe) is also available. It can handle larger data sets than can be handled by the 32-bit utility, even though the Point Service is a 32-bit compiled service. The 64-bit utility can be installed using the CygNet Client Installer: select Point Configuration Manager - 64-bit from the APPS/UTILS folder.
