Connecting Live To A Device - Extron electronics AXI 22 AT User Manual

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.
