Offline parameter window
The Offline Parameter window gives the ability to compare 
parameter files, perform a parameter distribution, and 
Export/Import parameter files that we will discuss in a later 
section.
To find a desired parameter or word in a parameter, 
the Search box allows for a quick way to look for letter 
order used in a parameter name or by checking the 
Long description box, it will also look in the parameter 
descriptions.  If further support is needed, the Support 
button will provide technical support contacts for the Region 
required.  More details on these buttons are described 
below.
Online
The Online mode is when the tool is connected to the 
device via the communication protocol.  When online, you 
are able to make changes to the drive and see them change 
in real time with the drive.  It also gives the ability to see 
fault conditions, monitor device parameters, trend data, and 
sync real-time clock, compare parameter, device service info, 
and control the device.  To go online with the device, there 
are a few options.
Right click on the device in the Network View and select 
Connect.
