Database Status

This window displays the status of the components within the database while browsing the database structure. The system displays all applications (connected or not), the gateway, controller sites, etc.

You can also perform manual operations directly from the window and edit components in order to modify their configuration.

1  - From the Status window, select the Database button. The Database window appears.

NOTE: The button identifies the type of component.

2  - In the Database window, select the application you want to view the database. The lower part of the window displays the actual status of the selected component as well as its full name.

3  - Select a component to modify its definition directly from the Database window. For example, if you have selected a door, right-click the door to display a shortcut menu.

4  - Select a command in the cascading sub-menu; select a menu option.

NOTE: The command list varies according to the selected component.

5  - Make your modifications to return to the Database status window. The Right-click  shortcut menu offers the following options:

•   Full expand — This feature allows you to fully expand the tree status and view all components. Only applications that are connected to the server will display a “+” sign.

•   Full collapse — This feature allows you to fully collapse the tree status and hide all components of the root component.

•   Edit — When you select an assigned component (i.e.: input) and click edit, the system will edit the definition window so you can modify its definition and when finished, return to the window you edited the component from.

•   Limited display / No limited display — When you click on a physical component, the bottom part of the window displays its status.

•   By selecting Limited display , the system will erase the previous status and display the status of the next selected component.

NOTE: The buttons on the left side components indicate the component type.
