Control Descriptions
5 Control Descriptions
The controls of FTX-L 3G are accessible from the front panel, VisionWeb software,
VisionPanel remote panels or SNMP. The description of controls used in this manual is based
on VisionWeb GUI screen grabs but the path to locate controls via the front panel follows the
same logic. VisionWeb GUI controls are accessed by menus at the bottom of the page which,
when selected, may offer sub-menus containing a number of controls. Some controls are
simulated LEDs that are used to show status, others are check boxes, buttons or sliders
which change various settings.
FTX-L 3G only has a single menu
STATUS
for input and laser status monitoring.
The menu is shown with a screen grab and description of each control’s function.
5.1 Status Menu
Status
Display presence of incoming video signal and laser status.
Present
On when Channel 1 or Channel 2 input video is present. With no
input present the laser will automatically shut down.
Laser On
On when Channel 1 or Channel 2 laser is active. Note that there can
be several reasons for the laser to shut down, apart from it being
manually disabled for maintenance purposes or through a lack of
video input, an automatic shutdown will result if the laser’s working
parameters become out of specification. For example, reaching the
end of its working life or for a transitory transgression of design
limits. Once the laser has been shut down, as a safety feature it will
latch in this condition. If it is suspected that the shutdown has been
the result of a transitory condition this latched shutdown condition
may be reversed by moving the channel ‘Dis’ switch down then up
again.
Level Warning
On if Channel 1 or 2 laser is producing low output power. This
indicates that the laser has reached 85% of expected life and should
be replaced as soon as possible.
