# What does the Add Virtual Device button do?

This function allows you to create a virtual device based on either a custom configuration file or a device with default configuration. This can be used to look at different panes in Setup Tool without the need of a device to connect to. Pressing the button initiates a wizard that guides you through the steps of creating a virtual device. Initial options are to use a configuration/backup file for creation or use the factory default settings.

After the wizard is finished, a new virtual device is added to the list of discovered devices, indicated by an icon as a virtual device. The created virtual device is not visible for other devices on the network. The virtual device persists during multiple Setup Tool instances.

The created virtual device can be connected to the same way as a regular device, except that all configuration changes are rejected (everything is read-only) and no features, functions, and actions work on virtual devices.
