Overview:
This article explores the VIRTUAL view of AVX Architect and looks at the Component List. The Component List is where you can see all of the devices and their respective inputs and outputs to drag into the VIRTUAL view canvas. By default, the Component List will be empty if there is no hardware added in the System view.

In this example there is a Soundweb OMNI DSP and I/O Expander. They have been renamed DSP1 and EXP1.

The fixed and flex I/O have been changed to be digital inputs and outputs, and also the GPIO has been changed from a General Purpose Input to an Output. These changes are just to show how they reflect in the Component List.

In the VIRTUAL view, the Component List on the left has populated with the devices and their I/O. The DSP and Expander also show their new names.

From here, individual components like the GP Input or Output objects can be added directly to the canvas to interact with other objects.

The entire group can also be added to the canvas as a single object block but notice how dragging the group will only bring in the remaining available GPIO if any are already being used in the canvas.

This same concept can also apply to the Device. If the Device is dragged in, then all the available GPIO will be placed into our canvas.

Audio inputs and outputs can also be dragged in directly in the same manner.

Notice that the fixed and flex cards will be separated if we drag our Analog Inputs group into the canvas. This also applies to Analog Outputs and the Digital Ins and Outs.

Digital inputs and outputs will come in as a stereo pair since the digital signals are two channels.

The Component List also has a search function at the top that can be used to find specific inputs/outputs, or even devices. If "dig" is searched, the digital inputs will be shown.

If “EXP1" is searched, the Expander with all of its ins and outs is shown.
