obixDriver-ObixClientManager
This view adds, edits, and accesses oBIX device components (ObixClients and R2ObixClients). It is the default view of an Obix Network. It is equivalent to the Device Manager view in most other drivers.
Figure 20. Obix Client Manager view
To access this view, double-click the Obix Network node in the Nav tree.
NOTE: Unlike in some other drivers, there is no learn mode (with a Discovered pane). Instead, you use the New button to add devices.
Added devices appear in the Database pane.
By default, these columns appear in the Discovered pane of the Obix Client Manager view:
