<p class="hcp1">Once a hardware connection has been made to
the external network of devices the design file can be put <span class="hcp2">online</span>
to communicate directly with those devices. In <span class="hcp2">online</span>
mode the design file is also switched into <span class="hcp2">operate</span>
mode in order to start using controls immediately.</p>

<p class="hcp1">To go <span class="hcp2">online</span>
either, press the 'Online' button on the bottom status bar (a green indicator
with a tick shows that <span class="hcp2">operate</span>
mode is engaged) or, use the <span class="hcp2">Run</span>
command in the System menu and toolbar. The system can be 'Stopped' or
'Disconnected' from the network using the requisite commands in these
menus.</p>
<p class="hcp1">o A warning dialog will appear if any of the
required devices are missing on the network; this shows a list of the
objects that should be connected up.</p>
<p class="hcp1">o When <span class="hcp2">online</span>
to devices on the network, they will display an icon over their device
in the layout window indicating which devices have been found and are
online.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0;"><font style="font-size: 10pt;" size="2">o
The <span class="hcp3">Open from device
network</span> option in the <span class="hcp3">File</span>
menu enables the capability of downloading the current set up in the devices
on the network to the design file. The design must have been previously
saved to the network to facilitate this. This is a new feature in Architect
implemented due to customer requests.</font></p>
