ATA & ATS Comparison

ATA (Accessibility through ADB): This is a complex method that requires a USB connection during the initial setup to obtain "shell" permission for our control software. It involves connecting via a USB cable, enabling developer options - USB debugging, and installing device drivers.

ATS (Accessibility through Service): This method is simple, all users need to do is grant Accessibility permission to our software. Can detach from Total Control and run scripts.
