Chapter 2: Operation
Customize the Paragon Manager Window
The Paragon Manager window contains the Paragon Manager menu bar and tool bar, the Device panel,
User panel, Log panel, and Power Strip View window. You can customize your view by resizing panels or
by viewing or hiding any of these components (except for the Device panel).
The Device panel displays all connected devices in your Paragon system, and the User panel displays all
users in your Paragon system. The Log panel displays the current activity of Paragon Manager. The Power
Strip View panel displays any power strips connected in your Paragon configuration.
When you connect to your Paragon unit via Paragon Manager, Paragon Manager downloads the Paragon
unit’s database and populates the Device, User, and Power Strip panels. All data from the Paragon is visible
in the Paragon Manager window. Once a session is initiated, updates to the database happen in real time
and changes to the Paragon database from other users are immediately reflected in your Paragon Manager
screen.
