Control System GUI
All LYNX CardModules support a computer interface which allows setting the
modules parameters using the simple APPolo control software GUI interface.
Access to all standard features
and in some cases
extended features is possible
using this interface.
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.
shows the complete module GUI. The “Device Info” area across the top
contains information about the module including name and firmware revision. The
“Position” area displays the modules position and physical location. This is useful
if the device is installed as part of a larger installation.
NOTE:
The Locate button (in the “Position” area) is a useful tool to quickly identify
a module in larger systems. Activating “Locate” will flash the module’s
alarm LED in yellow color (this does not affect
the module’s operation in
anyway).This function will be stopped automatically (timeout).
The “Error Log” at the bottom of the screen displays an individual time stamped
message for any error or warning condition in the system. The same information
can always be found in the APPolo Control System’s textual logfiles.
