5.4.2 Web Server Interface – Operational Features
5.4.2.1 Virtual Front Panel
The CDM ‐ 800 Web Server Interface features a read ‐ only ‘ Virtual Front Panel ’ (VFP) at the top of
every page. This section emulates the CDM ‐ 800 front panel real ‐ time LED operation. These
virtual LEDs provide ‘heads ‐ up’ operational status indicators that react to any changes made to
unit operation.
5.4.2.2 Navigation
Every page features a row of top ‐ level navigation tabs located just
below the Virtual Front Panel. To navigate between pages, first roll
the cursor over and select a navigation tab. Then, select an
available primary page tab. In turn, any nested tabs will appear for
further selection.
This manual uses a naming format for all Web pages to indicate the depth of navigation needed
to view the subject page: “ Top Level Tab | Primary Page Tab | Nested Tab ”.
For example: “ Status | Statistics | Traffic ” is interpreted to mean “ first click the top ‐ level
‘ Status ’ navigation tab; then , click the ‘ Statistics ’ primary page tab; finally , click the nested
‘ Traffic ’ tab.”
5.4.2.3 Page Sections
Each Web page is divided into operational content sections.
Whether there is one section to a page, or there are multiple
sections, the title at the upper ‐ left corner of each page section
provides the user with a reference to its operational features.
This manual explains the purpose and operation for each Web page on a per ‐ page, per ‐ section
basis.
5.4.2.4 Execution Buttons
Configuration changes generally do not take effect until a selection has
been saved to flash memory. There may be anywhere from one
execution button per page up to multiple execution buttons within a
page section. The label for each of these buttons is generally self ‐
explanatory, e.g., [Submit] , [Clear] , [Refresh ], etc.
