  4. Configure at least Bus No and Elem No and click OK.
    The driver adds the device to the database.
  5. Right-click the device and click Actions > Fetch.
    The driver retrieves additional device information, such as pic type, part no, model no, etc.

    The Status of a CcnDevice is either {ok} or, less typically, {fault}. The Health slot contains historical timestamp properties that record the last device transitions from {ok} to any other status. The Fault Cause property further explains any fault status.
