Device Editor - The ribbon and tabs explained

File

Once you have made a device, you can easily use it when making a project for your Biamp Control System.

To design a new device select the "New" icon in the menu. 

Or you can open an existing device.

Edit

In the menu you have the possibility to use the clipboard, change COM-port or show the connection diagram for the device if one is attached.

Help

In the help tab, you'll find the possibility to connect to remote support (a Teamviewer session), this is handy if you are in contact with Biamp or one of our distributors support department.

Help opens a short catalogue of helpful offline guides, about tells you the current version of your Device Editor and by pressing Version history you'll see the changelog with bug fixes and new features.
