• Click Yes if you made any changes to the network since it was backed up. This prevents the
network from behaving unpredictably if the OpenLNS CT network design is not in sync with
the physical devices.
• Click No only if changes have not been made to the configuration of the existing physical
devices on the network since it was backed up. This happens if OpenLNS CT was OffNet the
entire time, or if you added new devices and functional blocks but did not modify any existing
devices or functional blocks. The OpenLNS CT drawing will not be opened.

the drawing has been opened, click Add-ins, point to Synchronization, click Resynchronize,
