Disabling the Automatic Management Function
The factory default is to enable the automatic management feature for
environmental sensors and actuators. Therefore, when the total number
of managed sensors and actuators has not reached 32 yet, the PXE
automatically brings newly-connected environmental sensors and
actuators under management after detecting the connection of these
sensors and actuators.
When this feature is disabled, the PXE no longer automatically manages
any newly detected environmental sensors and actuators, and therefore
neither ID numbers are assigned nor sensor readings or states are
available for newly-added sensors and actuators.
To disable the automatic management feature:
1. Click the PDU folder.
Note: The PDU folder is named "my PX" by default. The name can
be customized. See
Naming the PDU (on page 55).
2. Click Setup in the Settings section. The Pdu Setup dialog appears.
3. Deselect the Peripheral Device Auto Management checkbox.
4. Click OK.
Controlling Actuators
If you have any DX sensor packages with actuators connected, which
can move or control a mechanism or system, you can remotely turn on or
off the actuators to control the connected mechanism or system.
To turn on or off an individual actuator:
1. Expand the Peripheral Devices folder. See
Expanding the Tree
(on
page 42).
2. Click the desired actuator from the navigation tree. That actuator's
page opens in the right pane.
3. Click "Switch on" to turn on the actuator, or "Switch off" to turn it off.
To turn on or off multiple actuators:
1. Click Peripheral Devices in the PX Explorer pane, and the Peripheral
Devices page opens in the right pane.
2. Select the checkboxes of the desired actuators on the Peripheral
Devices page.
Tip: An actuator is indicated with the icon displayed in the
'Actuator' column.
