Network Toolbar

The Network Toolbar provides functions related to communications, configuration, maintenance, and testing of the system network (see System Network Considerations).

Network Toolbar function includes: Connect To System, Disconnect From System, Send Configuration, Start Audio, Stop Audio, HDCP Management, Device Maintenance, Equipment Table and Locate Devices.

Icon	Name	Description
	Connect To System	Establishes communication with, and retrieves data from, selected Tesira® systems on the network. Opens System Connect dialog box (see System Network Considerations and System Connect Considerations). Password protection is then available from the Tools Menu. When connected to a system, Component Object Properties may be changed, but system design (objects & connections) cannot.
	Disconnect From System	Ends communications with selected Tesira® systems on the network. System design data is retained in software after disconnect. See System Network Considerations
	Send Configuration	Transmits system design data to selected Tesira® devices in the system. See System Network Considerations. Before data can be transmitted, a system design file (.TMF) must first be opened, then connected to a system, and have Tesira device IP addresses assigned (see Device Maintenance). Send Configuration will automatically Compile the system design, and reset the hardware devices, before sending the new configuration.
	Start Audio	Enables audio signal flow within the selected system. Start Audio is available only after Send Configuration has been successfully performed. See System Network Considerations.
	Stop Audio	Disables audio signal flow within the selected system. See System Network Considerations.
	Manage HDCP	Opens the Manage HDCP window to allow enabling or disabling HDCP state. See HDCP Management.
	Device Maintenance	Provides an editable table of network related settings for selected Tesira® devices. Opens Device Maintenance dialog box. Device Maintenance settings include Date/Time, IP Address, Description, Serial Number, Reset/Initialize, Update Firmware, and Disconnect From Network. See System Network Considerations.
	Equipment Table	Correlates hardware components to the system design. See Equipment Table.
	Locate Devices	Locate can be used to identify a device either on the network or via the software. See Locate Devices.
