Component view
The component view of the DEX shows its information in a hierarchical structure, which means that a component
that is contained in a device is listed as a subentry of this device. This allows you in an OmniBus configuration to
see which video input cards are plugged into which O
MNI
B
US
and again to which Processor this O
MNI
B
US
is con-
nected. With a Processor configuration the P
ROCESSOR
and optional E
XTENDERS
are commonly represented in the
T
RANS
F
ORM
A entry. The graphic cards, O
MNI
S
CALERS
and input cards are direct subentries of T
RANS
F
ORM
A.
The information provided by the component view are basically article numbers of the parts used in T
RANS
F
ORM
A,
the version of firmware and controlware as well as configuration values like the PCI slot used for a card and real-
time status values like e.g. temperatures. If a value appears in DEX depends from the used hardware and from
the used OmniBus or Processor configuration.
