The Add button is used to add a remote device to your network that is not listed in the lower panel, for example, a
device currently located on another logical network. Users will be prompted to input the passwords for all devices
they wish to manage and add them to the local logical network by clicking on the Add button. A dialog box will
appear as shown below. The dialog box allows user to enter both device name and the password. A confirmation
box will appear if the password was entered correctly and the device was found. If a device is not found, the user
will be prompted and instructions to this problem will be shown, too.

Note: The device must be present on the power line (plugged in) in order to check the password so it can be
added to the network. If the device could not be located, a warning message will be shown.
The Scan button is used to perform an search of the Powerline Ethernet devices connected to the computer. By
default, the utility will automatically scan once every few seconds and updates the display. A typical screen after
naming and supplying passwords might appear as in Figure 7.
