Scanning the Network

PortVision DX does not scan the network for new devices unless you chose to do so. You can

refresh

the view of the devices displayed in PortVision DX without scanning the network or simply

wait for the next polling cycle. PortVision DX polls the devices and refreshes the view, which is
dependent on the

polling cycle

interval.

You can follow these steps to scan the network:

1. Click the Scan button or optionally do one of the following:

• Click the Scan Network option under the Tools menu and click the product type

or types for which you want to locate.

• Click the Enable the Always scan network feature under the Tools menu in the

Options screen and click the product type or types for which you want to locate.

2. Click the product type or types for which you want to locate and click the Scan button on

the Scan Network pop up.

Note: You can save time and only scan for products that you have connected to the

network.
