When you select an individual device in the Component Tree, there are three commands that always
appear in the pop-up menu:
When you select a device group, the Macros and Properties commands are always present, but apply to
the group of devices; the Device, External App, and Technical Support commands are not available.
Feature-specific commands may also be provided, depending on the EPICenter feature you are using.
When you select a slot, only the Properties command is available. When you select a port, the Macros
and Properties commands are present.
The sections below define the standard commands that are present in the pop-up menu. Feature-specific
commands are discussed in the appropriate chapter for the feature.
The External App Sub-Menu
This command provides a sub-menu that lets you launch device-specific applications that are external to
EPICenter. Links to external applications will be available only for specific devices that have been
integrated into EPICenter in such a way as to provide this external linkage.
If the third-party device has a device-specific application, the menu will show Launch <device name> .
If no external application is available for the device, the link will show <none> .
This feature does not necessarily replace the Device Manager command found under the Device menu;
the Device Manager command attempts to connect a browser to the selected device to run the device’s
browser-based user interface, if one exists. However, for most third-party devices, the Device Manager
command is not available.
The Device Sub-Menu
The Device command provides a sub-menu of commands that let you view the following information
for the selected device:
Table 4: Right-Click Pop-Up Menu Basic Commands
External App If EPICenter has been configured to launch an external application for the selected third-party
device, a link to the launch point appears as a sub-menu item. If no external application is
available, the sub-menu shows <none>. This command is available only from the right-click
pop-up menu.
Device Same as the Device command from the Tools menu.
Provides a sub-menu of commands you can use to view the display from one of the other
applets, in a separate window, for the selected device. This means, for example, that from the
Inventory Manager, you can view the Alarm Log for the selected device, without leaving the
Inventory Manager applet. The display appears in a separate window, and shows the same
information as you would see if you ran the Alarms applet and then filtered for the device.
Technical
Support Same as the Technical Support command from the Tools menu.
Provides a command that allow the collection of information about the selected device to aid
in troubleshooting problems in your network.
Macros Same as the Macros command from the Tools menu.
Provides a sub-menu of user-defined Telnet macros that can be run on the selected
component (device group, device, or port). If no macros are defined that you are allowed to
run based on your role, the sub-menu shows <none>.
Properties Same as the Properties command from the Display menu.
Displays in a separate window a summary of attributes for the selected device.
