Off-Line Programming
Performing Off-Line Programming
The Off-Line feature allows preprogramming without having to connect to a system.
When in the Off-Line Mode, all menus and windows are accessible just as if the
system were on-line. The only apparent difference is found in the System
Configuration window which will not display any device icons except for the console
while off-line.
Note: The Off-Line feature does not eliminate the need for a console. The Visionary
3D application is available for programming offline without a console.
Set console to Off-Line Mode:
• At Virtuoso icon menu, select Off-Line. When in off-
line mode, system configuration window will not
display any connected system devices and "offline" will
appear next to the console icon.
The Status Indicator Bar will also indicate that the console is in Off-Line Mode. Also,
when the system is Off-Line, the Live/Preview modes will not be available.
Note: When an offline console is brought on-line, the Live mode will be restored by
default, even if the console was previously in Preview mode.
