Managing Devices in COBRA Show Operator with Device List

The device list feature enables users to view and filter information regarding all devices, including continuity, power, signal, key position, and additional parameters. However, with the CSO Device List, you have the capability to create personalized views by selecting the specific information you wish to display and determining its presentation format. This functionality provides a robust user interface for device diagnostics prior to your event.
