Text Status

The Text status allows an operator to display the status of a selected component (and sub-components) as well as all the characteristics associated with this component in a text form. This menu option applies to all the system devices: applications, gateways, sites, controllers, doors, relays and inputs. The text window contains additional buttons that assist operators in their tasks:

  • The first eight buttons represent system devices (Workstation, Gateway, Connection, Controller, Door, Input and Output). When a button representing a system device is selected, all the components defined in the system are displayed for selection.
  • Summary/Detailed list —The magnifying glass button is used to display components that are not in normal condition. It displays a summary list or a detailed list.
    • Summary: shows the components that are not in normal condition
    • Detail: shows all the components in any condition.
  • Stop display —This button is used to stop the display when the information is taking too much time. It cancels or interrupts the process.
  • Refresh —Refreshes the status of the selected components.
  • Print —Use this button to print the displayed status. You can preview your report before printing it.
