Emulate Mode
When DSP Configurator is launched, it opens in Emulate mode. While in Emulate mode,
DSP Configurator is functioning in an "offline" state. Changes made to the configuration file
are not applied to a device. Creating configuration files in Emulate mode saves time by not
requiring a device to be connected or present in order for the bulk of configuration to be
completed.
In Emulate mode, the user can create configuration files and presets as though a device
was connected, except for any actions that require a direct connection to the device or
information that is stored only on the device. Once the offline configuration is complete, the
user can either switch to Live mode and push the configuration to the device, or save the
configuration file to be loaded onto one or multiple devices at a later time.
NOTE: Not all menu options or actions are available in Emulate mode.
Live Mode
Connect to a device in Live mode to push or pull configurations between the device
and the host PC. In Live mode, changes made in DSP Configurator are directly applied
to the connected device. Upon leaving Live mode, the user is asked to confirm that
DSP Configurator should disconnect from the device.
