Create a New Niagara SCX Explorer View
Niagara SCX Explorer views allow you to save a list showing Niagara SCXs where you connect and
display that list later. You save time by recalling a saved view instead of manually connecting to each
individual Niagara SCX.
NOTE: Views essentially act like bookmarks. They do not contain any in-depth information
about your managers (such as the types of encoders you connected).
1. Click File and select New to create a new Niagara SCX Explorer view.
NOTE: The Niagara SCX Explorer window (Figure 46) displays with no Niagara SCX
listed.
