Viewing server connections
When you select the Devices category for the first time, the AMP will retrieve the servers that exist in the AVWorks database as well as information on how the servers are connected to the selected appliance.
The Connection column displays the current server connection. This can be to either an AVRIQ adaptor or a cascade switch. If connected to an AVRIQ adaptor, the AVRIQ’s EID will display in the Connection column. If connected to a cascade switch, the switch and all of its channels will be displayed. If no unit is currently connected to the path, then this field will display as None. If you click either an AVRIQ or switch in the Connection column, the Viewer will launch.

Resynchronizing the server listing
You may choose to periodically resynchronize the database on your AVWorks client with the database stored in the appliance. Do this if the local analog workstation has changed server names or if AVRIQ adaptors have been added or moved.
NOTE: This procedure only resynchronizes your own AVWorks client. If you have multiple AVWorks clients, save your resynchronized local database and load it into the other AVWorks client to ensure consistency.
To resynchronize the server listing:
1.Click the Resync button in the Server category of the AMP. The Resync Wizard launches. Click Next.
2.A warning message displays indicating that the database will be updated
