Control System GUI
All LYNX CardModules support a computer interface which allows setting the modules
parameters using a simple GUI interface. Access to all standard features
and in some
cases
extended features is possible using this interface. The complex nature and
extensive user settings provided on the PVD 5600
requires
the use of the control
system.
Note. Any settings made using the control system overrides any local settings
made on the module. All settings are stored in internal flash ram and will survive
power cycles and long term storage.
The following GUI screenshots and descriptions shown below describe the settings and
adjustments possible for the PVD 5600 CardModule.
The above screenshot shows the complete module GUI. The Device info area contains
information about the module including name and firmware revision. If used as part of a
larger system (using the LYNX central control system) the modules position and physical
location is displayed above the “locate” button.
Note. The Locate function us a tool used to quickly identify a module in larger
systems. Selecting “locate” will flash the module alarm LED yellow. (This does
not effect module operation)
The first screen displayed when the module is selected is the
