Logging
The logging features of MediaNAV allow for several levels of detail, for several different
perspectives which include devices, hardware panels, users, interfaces, and others. The
levels of detail for each of these perspectives are as follows:
• Errors
• Warnings
• System
Events
• Transactions
• Communications
Events
• Debug
Each of these levels is cumulative, such that Warnings includes Errors, System Events
includes Errors and Warnings, etcetera.
Backup and Restore tab
This valuable feature helps prevent the need to rebuild all configurations in the event of
corruption or loss of data. It’s also useful for creating various configurations for systems
that may be used in different venues or for various applications, such as for staging and
rentals. The Backup function allows the entire configuration to be saved in a file on any
storage media available to the browsing computer. The Restore function, of course, loads
the desired backup file to the current system configuration.
Analyze Config
This tab runs a useful diagnostic and provides a list of potential issues related to the
current system configuration.
Factory Defaults
This tab provides access to a button that will reset the configuration of the system to
factory defaults. Clicking on Restore factory default configuration will cancel any
changes to the configuration and reboot the controller.
Warning!
Clicking
Restore factory default configuration will delete
all devices, consoles, added users,
added groups, and restore default IP and serial communication settings.
