6.7.2 Scanning for Network Variables
When the L-INX Configurator is connected to an LNS database, network variables can be
scanned from that data base.
To scan network variables from the LNS database

Click on the

tab.
2.
Click on the button
Scan channel
. This scans in all NVs on all devices connected
to the CEA-709 channel of the LINX-10X.
3.
After the scan has completed, the folder
LNS Database Scan
is populated with the
found NVs. Data point names for those NVs are automatically generated, following the
data point naming rules defined in the project settings (see Section 6.3.2). By default
the name is generated from node name, object name, and NV name. These names are
ensured to be unique by adding a counter for multiple occurrences of the same name.

All items can be selected by pressing <Ctrl-A>.
