Nc Manager
This view provides access to the ncis. The Property Sheet that supports both the Nc and Nv Managers provides access to these properties.
This view is a table view similar to the Nv Manager, but it provides access only to Network Configurable Inputs (ncis) in the device. Table columns can be sorted. You can change the data columns for display using the standard table controls. Edit access to an nci using the Nc Manager is limited to changing the name of the associated Lon component.
Figure 65. Nc Manager view on Lon device shows only ncis
To open this view, right-click a LonDevice and click.
If Lon objects appear in the Nc Manager, click the All Descendants tool (
) to flatten the hierarchy in the view and see the ncis in each Lon object.
