**Notes**: 

- The refresh icon is not available for Litmus Edge version 3.5.2 and later. 
- As of Litmus Edge version 3.11.0, if Litmus Edge is rebooted, the status of devices is maintained. For example, if a device is stopped and Litmus Edge reboots, when Litmus Edge restarts the device will remain in a stopped state. For earlier versions, stopped devices will automatically try to re-connect when Litmus Edge restarts.
