VTX-WM1 Installation Guide v1.1

unit’s network status, server status and IP 
address. Only one amplifier in the list should 
have a green tick in the 

Server

 column. Note 

that this page automatically refreshes every few 
seconds, as the network is continuously polled. 

Clicking the 

Test

 button in the 

Test 

connection

 column causes the amplifier 

in question to be polled immediately (often 
referred to as “pinging”); it will then report its 
current status.

As with the Home page, clicking on a 

Unit 

Name

 will open the Amplifier Status page.

Site Configuration

Clicking the 

Config

 tab opens the Site 

Configuration page. Some of the fields on this 
page – 

Site Name

Site Password

 and 

Email target

 - will have been completed 

during initial site and amplifier configuration.

Port No.
The default value for this field is 80, which will 
be appropriate for most installations. However, 

some large IT systems may require a different 

port number to be used to avoid conflicts. Please 
check with the IT system’s administrator as to 
whether this is a requirement. An alternative 
value may simply be entered if necessary. 

Login
Access to the site and amplifier configuration 
pages may be password-protected to prevent 

unauthorised changes to IP addresses, etc. If a 

password has been defined and the 

Request 

login

 box checked, the password will be 

requested before the 

Config

 tab is opened. 

Request login

 is active by default. After 

logging in with the password, remember to log 
out by clicking the 

Log out

 button at the top 

of the amplifier list on this page.

The Amplifier Status and Network Status pages 

are available at all times to all users, without a 
password being required.

Short email format
If this box is left unchecked (the default), any 

emails sent to the target address will only 
contain abridged site information, and not a full 
description of any fault conditions (see below).

Event Log and log configuration
A log is maintained for each amplifier on the 
system. The log records power-on and power-

off, over-temperature, impedance test pass/
fail and email alert failures, all against the on-

board clock/calendar. The Event logging pane 
on the Site Configuration page lets you define 
which of these events are to be recorded and 

whether any (or all) of them should generate 
email alerts.

For each of the six event types, one of the 

following options may be set:

 

None

 – events of this type are ignored

 

Log only

 – events of this type are 

recorded in the log

 

Log & email

 – events are recorded in 

the log and also entered in an alert email, 
but the email is not sent at this time.

 

Email Trigger

 – events are recorded 

in the log, and the alert email is sent; this 

will contain the current event and any 
events recorded via the 

Log & email

 

option above.

The Event log for a particular amplifier may 

be inspected by clicking on the amplifier’s 
button in the list (opens the 

Amplifier 

Properties

 page), and then clicking on 

Event Log

 below the button.
