The Discover Device feature allows you to read and write the device configuration from or to the device.
This function allows you to read information from a device that is connected to the Global Tuning Tool. This information is used to create a device template that reflects the internal layout structure of the device, which includs its physical cores, virtual cores, and routing information from device input to virtual cores between virtual cores and core objects.
You can also write (download) your own configuration to the device using this feature.
Below are the few details which GTT will get from the device to construct the inner layout.
- Physical cores information.
- Core information.
- Core objects information.
- Device and Virtual Core Routing (For more details refers to Device Routing)
Below are the prerequisites to start a Discover a Device.
- Copy the flash file (device.flash) and the audio library xAFVirtualAmp.dll file available in AWXInstalledLocation/HarmanAudioworX/AudioFrameworkDLLs to your working folder.
- Launch IVP, open to “Advanced” settings, go to “Plugins” tab, and select the correct path to the xAFVirtualAmp64.dll.
Before using this feature, delete all the *.flash files from the working folder. IVP may crash, if it has the old tuning flash files.
Follow the below steps to discover a device:
- On Add Device window, click on Discover Device. The GTT will start to communicate with the target device, gather the device information, and add the device to the Devices templates.
The device identification feature is enabled for audio libraries version 13 and higher.
Only after you have completed the prerequisites the Discover Device feature function will work properly.
