Using the SmartServer Web Interface
Select the Disable check box to have the SmartServer’s internal data server
return cached values to the Web pages regardless how old the data point
values are. This is the default. If you clear this check box, the default
maximum age is 0.5 seconds.
Tree Mode
Select how data points in the navigation pane in the left frame are organized.
You have two choices:
Network. Data points are organized by their parent objects using the
following network hierarchy: network/channel/device/functional
block/data point.
Alias Name. Data points are alphabetized by their alias names, which
correspond to their locations in the navigation pane. This is how data
points were organized in the e3 release of the i.LON software. You can
edit or create the alias name for a data point in its Configure - Data
Point Web page, which you can access by clicking General and then
clicking the data point in the tree. If you select this option, the data
points are listed in the navigation pane as follows:
o The data points on the i.LON App (Internal) device under the
LON channel are listed in the tree with the “NVL” prefix.
o The virtual data points on the i.LON App (System) device are
listed in the tree with the “iLON System” prefix. In the e3 release
of the i.LON 100 server, these data points were referred to as
“NVVs”.
o The data points of the external devices connected to the
SmartServer do not have default alias names (unless you migrate a
network from an i.LON 100 e3 server to the SmartServer). As a
result, external data points are not listed in the navigation pane if
this option is selected and alias names have not been created for
them. In the e3 release of the i.LON 100 server, these data points
were referred to as “NVEs”.
Displays Hidden
Shows all icons in the navigation pane of the selected type even if the
Hidden property is enabled on individual icons of that type. The check
boxes for all the icons are cleared by default.
Hide CPs
Hides all configuration properties currently displayed in the SmartServer
tree. To re-display the configuration properties hidden by selecting this
option, clear this check box.
Show
Synchronization
Progress in Tree
Adds a synchronization status bar to the right of the network icon in the
SmartServer tree that displays the current ratio of items that have already
been synchronized to the total number of items being synchronized
(
). The number of items synchronized increases as
the synchronization operations progresses. This check box is cleared by
default.
MOD_Bus Address
Display
Select the format used to display the logical address of the Modbus devices
on the network: Decimal or Hexadecimal. The default format is Decimal.
Select Modicon Mode to enable device addressing to follow the Modicon
standard, in which the device addresses begin with 1. If this check box is
cleared, device addresses begin with 0. This check box is cleared by default.
Display Messages
Select the type of messages displayed in thError, Warning, Info, or Debug. The Error, Warning, and Info check
boxes are selected by default.
