A novel feature integrated into Overlord2 and OVERLORD Scheduler is Overlord2 Remoting. Overlord2 Remoting allows two or more OVERLORD controlled workcells to communicate with each other.

Run over a simple Local Area Network (LAN), with either a local Ethernet hub, or the site network, Overlord2 Remoting provides the communication layers for inter PC control.

There is one master Overlord2 Remoting node, and as many Overlord2 Remoting nodes as you require.
