Working With the Online Device Tree

The Online Tree tab of the Workspace Window (FIG. 20) displays an Online Device Tree for either
the NetLinx or Axcess Master Controller. The Online Device Tree displays a list of devices
detected to be currently online by the Master Controller (and the firmware version for each). The
Device Tree also provides port status information for each device.
The Online Device tree is only a snap shot and is not updated in real time as devices
come on/off line. Select Refresh System or Refresh Network from the Online Tree
Context Menu to update the Online Device Tree.
An example Device Tree is shown below (FIG. 20):
