Review the device properties (including communication settings) for this device, edit if necessary.
Right-click on any device in the System Diagram to access the System Diagram context menu.
Devices/Modules With Multiple Connection Types:
Devices that support more than one connection type are listed up to three times in the device tree - there
is a separate listing for each connection type supported by that device. For example, if a device in the
database has a module that supports IP, Serial and IR connectivity, then that device will be listed three
times in the device tree. Each connection type is indicated by a different icon.
When a device of a particular connection type is added to the System Diagram, you can change the
device properties and communication parameters for the selected connection type only. You cannot
change the connection type. To change connection types, you can remove the device/connection type and
drag a different connection type for that device into the System.
User Interface Devices
There are three types of User-Interface (UI) devices supported by Visual Architect (v1.1):
Touch Panels
Keypads
Remotes

Expanding The Port View
Use the
Auto-Connect
feature to let VA make the system connections for you as the
devices are dropped into the System diagram.
When adding video touch panels (including any of the wired Modero panels), VA
(v1.1 or higher) automatically adds the appropriate NXA-AVB Breakout box to the
System diagram at the time that the panel is added. Also, note that included
accessories cannot be removed from the system.
