As the intermediary between the automation system and the Intuition XG device, Xplay
must establish a connection directly with the Intuition XG device. This connection is defined
by adding the Intuition XG device to Xplay’s Device Manager (figure
3-4 ). The Device
Manager is accessed by selecting Xplay’s T OOLS >D EVICE M ANAGER menu command.
