There are different types of moves window, of which one is the endgame
tablebases window. You can select the type by right clicking in the moves
window. If you have selected endgame (or automatic, which means that the UCI
will switch to endgames if there are only a few pieces on the board), a button
with "online" appears at the bottom of the window.
