the Offline changes to take effect you must go to the Parameters tab. Once you
click the Parameters tab, ArmorStart correlation will take place and then the
changes can be downloaded to the ArmorStart.
Module Info Tab
Click on the Module Info tab to display the following:
This tab will display general identification information, as well as status
information about the ArmorStart. It is important to note that the information
displayed in this tab will not be constantly updated. After you click on the
Module Info tab, the AOP queries the ArmorStart once for the information
displayed in this tab and does not query the ArmorStart for the values again. If
after the initial query the status of the ArmorStart changes, for example a fault
occurs, the change in the status will not be automatically updated. The Refresh
button must be pressed to request the AOP for another ArmorStart query.
Note: A connection status (offline, online, downloading or uploading) is
provided at the bottom left of the tab window. The connection status appears in
all the tabs.
