The following information can also be obtained from the Fixtures tab:

Missing:

Displays a list of Fixtures that have been disconnected since the system was

powered on.

Errors:

Displays a list of disabled Fixtures and lists the error that the Engine detected.

Warnings: Shows Fixtures that are working under conditions that the Engine considers

unusual. For example, a warning is raised if plugged-in ports are not located

side-by-side on an Engine.

Good:

Displays all Fixtures that are neither missing, nor in error or warning states.

The Ports tab allows a user to view a port’s configuration data, its error status, and other

channels connected to the same Fixture. Click a numbered port to view this data.

Admin Tools

The Admin Tools offer other methods to verify system health. This page may be accessed

during a support call since it contains a number of important links that gather system statistics.

There is an identical page on the Director and every Engine, and it is necessary to point your

browser to the Engine’s name/IP address to access this page.

To access the Admin Tools:

1. Log in to the Redwood Application Launch Page as an admin user.
2. Click on the “Admin Tools” tile to open the Admin Tools Tech Support page.

The Tech Support Page is broken up into 6 major sections:

1. Configuration
2. Statistics
3. Actions
4. Logs
5. Other
6. Basic Support Info

Of these, the Download Support Data link from within the “Other” section is the most

important and will likely be requested by Redwood Support as part of a support call.
