DvaNetwork software can operate in two ways:

Offline : doesn’t require a connection with a Control 2/8 or any external device. In this mode the user
can manually design the audio system adding devices to the synoptic area.

Online: this mode requires almost one Control 2/8 or one USB RDNet device connected to the PC. In
Online mode each device shown on the synoptic area corresponds to a real RDNet device.
The action toolbar permits to quickly toggle between Online and Offline Mode.
Status toggle drop box is locked if any device is connected to the PC.
