REDHAWK Explorer View

REDHAWK Explorer View

The REDHAWK Explorer view enables users to navigate the contents of a REDHAWK domain.

REDHAWK Explorer View

It provides capabilities for viewing the contents of the domain, configuring instantiated resources, and launching applications in a Target SDR. It also provides access to the IDE sandbox, which is an environment for running components and applications without launching a Domain Manager or Device Manager.
