Audible and Visible Feedback
To help technicians work efficiently and accurately, the imVision System provides feedback to the user in a number
of ways – through the imVision Controller display, through LEDs above the ports on each panel and through a
number of audible tones. (See table.)
The ImVision Controller remembers each panel and each rack that it has communicated with in the past, and will
raise an alarm if communication with any of these items fails. If a rack or panel is legitimately removed, the user
must view the associated alarm and tap
Delete
informing the controller that the item in question has been
permanently removed.

imVision System Manager Software
Using the imVision System Manager Software, the physical infrastructure team can view and manage the patch
connections for the entire network from a workstation. The software documents the physical layer network
between faceplates, consolidation points, panels and network equipment. Through the software, the administrator
can schedule change orders for people needing additional services or moving offices. Change orders can be
electronic work orders that are relayed to the imVision Controllers, and track the fulfillment of the change orders,
trace circuits and locate end-points.
