146 -1. The Device Discovery tool will automatically report how many Ethernet devices have been discovered
147 -1. Verify that the expected number of Ethernet devices have been discovered, including any TSWs, GLPACs, DIN-CENCN-2s, etc.
148 -1*. Note that only Crestron devices will appear in Device Discovery; non-Crestron devices (such as Pharos or Enttec DMX controllers) will not appear in Device Discovery Tool
149 -1*. If no devices are discovered, verify that your computer is connected to the network and your IP address is compatible with the network
150 -1*. If some devices are missing, there may be an issue with your DHCP server settings or the network wiring
151 -1. Click the "Export..." button below the list of discovered devices
152 -1*. If this button says "Address Book", then Toolbox needs to be updated
153 -1. Click the Write Device Summary button and save the Device Summary to your computer
154 -1*. Though saved as a text file, the Device Summary is actually a table of comma separated values
155 -1*. Renaming DeviceSummary.txt to DeviceSummary.csv will allow it to be opened and manipulated in common spreadsheet software such as Microsoft Excel or LibreOffice Calc
