Understanding Connection Status
The PCT can be used to perform on-line configuration when connected to a module. Conversely, the PCT
can be used to perform off-line configuration when not connected to a module. The “Connect” and
“Disconnect” button availability and Information Status Bar indicate the connection status.
Connecting and Disconnect Buttons
When the PCT is connected to a module, the “Connect” button, along the top of the main tool window, is
not available, as shown.

When the PCT is not connected to a module, the “Disconnect” button, along the top of the main tool
window, is not available, as shown.
