Device Filter The Device Filter option opens to reveal three filtering options to help narrow
your search for a specific device. You can filter by Manufacturer, Device Type,
or Communications.
Add Add a new device to the library. The Manufacturer can be a new manufacturer
or you can select a previously-defined entry from the drop-down list. Similarly,
the Device Type can be a new entry or you can select a previously-defined
entry from the drop-down list. Manufacturer and Device Model entries are
limited to 20 characters while Device Type is limited to 40 characters. Once the
device is added it will be populated and selected in the library tree.
Delete Delete the selected device.
Sort Sort the devices alphabetically.
Import Allows you to import Novara or Solecis legacy library files (one-by-one) and
add their device definitions to the library. You can also import a previously
exported.xml library file.
Export Allows you to select an existing device model from the tree and export its
definition to a file in .xml format. This feature allows you to share devices with
others. Once exported you can import the definition and add it to the library
(assuming it does not already exist).
