{Device Discovery} is disabled by default. The {Device Discovery} option will not display if {RDM} is dis-
abled in the ECU.
Note:
When the RDM device list is opened, the devices will be displayed in Patch by Address mode. At the
top of the list is a RDM indicator. This indicator shows incoming and outgoing RDM traffic.
Ion will display the following information that it receives from the RDM devices:
Address (a part will be added if multiple devices are discovered with the same address)
Channel
Label
Manufacturer
Model
Footprint
Ion will also display what personality from the library the device matches in the Eos Type column. This
information will not display until you first select the device. Once the device has been selected for
the first time, Ion will extract the type information from the device and display it.
The following messages may display in the Eos Type column:
No RDM Data Available - no model specific RDM data has been extracted from the device.
Extracting RDM Commands - currently getting the command data from the device.
Extracting RDM Fixture -currently getting the data required to create a fixture definition for
the device.
Extracting RDM Sensors - currently getting the sensor definitions from the device.
Offline - no model specific RDM data has been extracted from the device and it is now offline.
With a device or devices selected, you can edit various device settings in the property view, which
will display in the CIA. Items with a caret (>) are editable. When multiple devices are selected
together for editing, an "*" will show for data that is different between the selected devices.

{Device Discovery} will automatically disable when you leave the patch display.
