Configure a Virtual NetLinx Master using NetLinx Studio

A Virtual NetLinx Master (VNM) is used when the target panel is not connected to a physical NetLinx Master. In this situation, the PC takes on the functions of a Master via a Virtual NetLinx Master. This connection is made by either using the PC’s Ethernet Address (via TCP/IP using a known PC’s IP Address as the Master) or using a direct mini-USB connection to communicate directly to the panel.
