Figure 30. Grouping Devices
The following group options are available:
NOTES:
• After selecting a grouping option, groups can be further sorted using column
sorting. Figure 31 shows the devices grouped by mode and sorted by device ID in
ascending order.
• Grouped devices can be expanded and collapsed by clicking on the square icon
located next to the group name (see figure 30,
2
).
•
None — Removes group sorting.
• Status — Organizes the devices into the following groups:
• Active • No device
• Mode — Organizes the devices into the following groups:
• Display • Recorder
• Source • None
• Type — Groups the devices by their description (type). For example, all VN-Matrix
200/225/250/300/325 codec devices are grouped together, all VN-Matrix decoder
devices are grouped together, all VN-Matrix encoder devices are grouped together, and
so on.
•
Controller — Groups the devices by system controller. When a VN-Matrix system
contains more than one system controller, use this option to link the devices to each
system controller.
• Version — Groups the devices by firmware version.
• Source — Groups each source by device ID. Displays or connections associated with
each source are also grouped together. Similar devices that are not connected to a
source are also grouped together.
• Expand All — Reveals all the devices. The devices are displayed under the appropriate
group name.
•
Collapse All — Hides all devices. Only the group names are displayed on the page.
