INTRODUCING SENTINEL
What is Sentinel?
The built-in SENTINEL
®
board and software turn IMAGETILE
®
into an
intelligent, web-enabled device, which can be addressed via the
facility network through a user-friendly browser interface.
Thanks to Sentinel, you can consult a number of the panel's settings
online, on any PC connected to the network.
Moreover, Sentinel can generate e-mails to user-defined addresses in
case a setting exceeds a warning or error tolerance level.
Before you can use the ImageTile as a web-enabled device, it must
get an Internet Protocol address.
Therefore, you must install and run the "Sentinel Setup" software,
which allows you to set the ImageTile's Internet Protocol address
properties.
Sentinel setup overview
To complete sentinel setup, you must perform the following actions:
1 Install the Sentinel Setup software
2 Run the Sentinel Setup software to enter the Internet Protocol
address properties.
These are no remote actions. They must be performed on the
computer connected to the ImageTile.
About the Sentinel Setup software
The Sentinel Setup software allows you to enter the ImageTile's
Internet Protocol address properties.
We discern 2 different situations, both requiring a different procedure:
a) You enter a new IP-address. This means the ImageTile has never
got an address before.
b) The ImageTile has got an IP-address before, which you wish to
change.
Both cases are treated in the chapters below, describing how to enter
or acquire an IP-address.
