Automatic Device Discovery
DW Spectrum provides a powerful and easy-to-use mechanism for automatic device discovery. It is required that a
device should be accessible via Broadcast.
As soon as Server is started and connected to Server, it automatically performs device discovery in its network. Once
a device is discovered, its parameters will be displayed in Resource Tree automatically.
