seconds until the front panel LEDs start to blink slowly. In parallel, the device is highlighted in green for 4 seconds
in the Device discovery window of the LDC.
INFO:
"Highlight Me" is the default function of the Show Me button. If you assign a different function to the
button, the feature above will not be available.

If the device is connected via the RS-232 port, click on the Query button next to the desired serial port to
display the device's name and serial number. Double-click on the device, or select it and click on the green
Connect button.

ATTENTION! Before the device is connected via the local RS-232 port, make sure that Control mode and LW3
protocol are set on the serial port. Furthermore, the RS-232 port must be free and other serial connection
must not be established to the device over that port.
5.3.3. USB Tab
If the device is connected via the USB port, it will be displayed in the list. If it is connected after opening this
tab, press the Refresh button.
