To finish configuring Emerson ROC and connect to physical devices, TLP definitions for each device need to be provided as described in the 'Specifying TLP Definitions for a Device' section of the EFM Emerson ROC Quickstart document. In short, the following three things need to be done:

• Specify TLP Definitions 
• Provide TLP Templates by importing TLP-template CSV file
• Configure TLP Poll Groups by importing TLP-poll-group CSV file

When this is done, the 'Devices' configuration page will look as shown below with the 'Status' of each device set to 'Connected'.
