[Device search] button
Opens the “Device search” dialog box. This function can use specified IP addresses to ping devices that are
connected to the current network. This function also can search the IP addresses of all devices that are connected
to the current network.
If the “Connected Devices” view does not list some devices on which you want to perform keepalive checks (life/
death monitoring), you can execute this function to list the devices in the “Connected Devices” view.
NOTE
A device that was discovered by the Device search function will disappear from the “Connected Devices” view if the device
does not communicate for a certain period of time. If you want a discovered device to appear continuously in the “Connected
Devices” view, enable keepalive check on the device. For details on keepalive check, refer to the description provided for the
Keepalive check box in 2 List for the “Connected Devices” view (page 27).
