General GUI functions
There are a number of functions and commands of
the LYNX APPolo Control System which are
common for all LYNX devices.
A click with the Right-Mouse-Button on any module
in the DeviceTree will generate the same menu that
is available from the “Device” menu. This menu
provides the following options:
Device Properties
The first entry in the Device menu opens a sub-menu page which shows device specific
properties about the selected module.
Locate
This function is useful if you need to physically locate a module in a larger system quickly
(for removal or maintenance purposes) When Locate selected this will flash the module
alarm LED yellow. This function does not impact normal module operation and will
timeout after a short time period.
New Control Window
Selecting this option will open up a separate GUI window showing just the controls for the
current module. This new window can be used to arrange multiple devices on your
desktop or similar.
