UserPanel Module
Defines the Panel ID within the Element Console to address. This number can be determined by telnetting to
the IP address of the element CPU on Port 4010, and tapping several of the buttons. For Example:
Open a command prompt on the windows PC and type Telnet IPAddress 4010 - “Telnet 172.168.2.3 4010”
Press Enter. This should open a Telnet session with the CPU.
Now tap several of the user panel buttons. You should see messages that look like:
EVENT MOD_USER#3.BUT#6 KEY=DOWN
EVENT MOD_USER#3.BUT#6 KEY=UP
The Module number is the one after the first # sign. In this case 3. This would be the number to enter in the
UserPanel Module field.
UserPanel Button
Identifies the number of the button on the panel to map to the software control. The bottom button is 1, and
they count up to the top of the panel. On a ten-button panel, the top button is ten. Once the UserPanel Mod-
ule and UserPanel Button properties are both entered, the HWMapAxiaSysName will automatically be filled in
accordingly.
