APWeb Instruction Manual

Overview of the Admin Home Page

APWeb’s Admin Home page has links for complete site access, while the links on the user’s Home page
are limited to control access. The Admin Home page displays information on the system’s virtual
matrices (VMs) and the number of currently defined macros. It also displays information regarding the
discovery of hardware devices and channel names during bootup if these features are enabled.

The links on the left side of the Home page access the pages listed below:
