Echelon LonMaker - Manual (Page 82)

66 Getting Started
4. Start the LonMaker tool on the remote full client. Click Start on the taskbar, point to Programs,
point to Echelon LonMaker, and then select LonMaker. The LonMaker Design Manager opens.
5. Restore the LonMaker drawings from the backup you created in step 1. See Restoring a
LonMaker Network in Chapter 7, Maintaining Networks, for instructions. After restoring the
drawing files, a prompt appears asking whether you want to open the network drawing. Click Yes
to open the network drawing. The Network Wizard opens with the Server Location page.
6. Select Remote Full Client to access the network and then click Next. The Network Interface

can add the unregistered plug-ins that are listed under the Not Registered category. For each
plug-in you want to register, click the plug-in and then click Register. You can select all the
