Going offline and using virtual devices
When the PRONET status is changed from Online to Offline, the device tree list of connected devices is
cleared. You can work offline adding to a “virtual” network some “virtual” devices. They aren’t real devices
connected in a real network and, for this reason, some functions are not available and there isn’t any data
message transferred by the USB2CAN converter to the devices. The offline mode is useful to configure some
presets for a device and to store them in the hard disk also without the device connected (see “Working with
advanced functions” and "Working with files”).
To add a virtual device there is a menu function
Menu→Device→Add Virtual Device
or a toolbar button (both
available only working offline).
