Yes, I meant to say device, but I seem to have protocols on the brain lately.

However, IR was never modified to provide a way to activate the DSM without the device being present. The usual approach, as Liz has stated, is to put the dummy device in IR while you are creating the DSM functions, and then when you are done, to delete it if you need the space.

Further, if you put back the dummy device upgrade during a subsequent editing session, the DSM functions will magically reappear on the Special Functions page.
