What is DSON core installer, and how do you use it?

I'm confused what this is. I currently use Daz Studio, but would like to make the move over to Poser soon, and have been buying Genesis 2 products such as Teen Jayden 6 and Callie 6. Those products say under compatible software DSON Importer for Poser, which I assume to be something to convert these files over to Poser. Some of the older products that I have purchased, such as LY Trini, for example, do not say DSON Importer for Poser under compatible software. However, at the bottom of the product page for Trini, it says under Notes, DSON Core installer included. I can't figure out what this core installer is and what you can do with it.

DSON is the Daz studio format, the DSON Importer for Poser allows poser to inport files in the DSON format (.duf files). The usualy method is to have the .duf files, a Python loader script, and a Poser library file tom luanch the Python script in the Poser library - the Poser Companion FIles. If there are no Poser CFs (for items with library files - theya ren't needed for morph expansion, for example) then it may be possible to launch the importer directly using a script from Dimension3D - but often if there's nopt Poser CF it means the item won't work in Poser.
