Using Custom Device and Functional Block Icons

You can use custom icons (.gif images) to represent your devices and functional blocks in the
SmartServer Web interface. Once you upload your custom device and functional blocks icons to the
SmartServer flash disk and you create new devices and functional blocks from the SmartServer tree,
your custom icons will automatically appear in the SmartServer tree and in the upper left-hand corner
of the configuration and driver pages for those devices and functional blocks.

To use custom device and functional block icons in the SmartServer Web interface, follow these steps:

1. Create your custom device and functional blocks icons in .gif format. Name your device icons

based on their program ID; name your functional blocks based on your company’s manufacturer
ID.

If you are creating a custom device icon, the name of the icon must be <device program
ID
>.gif. For example, the file name for An icon representing the Echelon LonPoint
DIO-10v13 Device must be 80000105288A0403.gif.

If you are creating a custom functional block icon, the name of the icon must be
<manufacturer ID>[scope selector]. <functional profile programmatic name>.gif. For
example, the file name for An icon representing the Digital Encoder functional block on the
Echelon LonPoint DIO-10v13 Device must be
8000010000000000[3].UFPTDigitalEncoder.gif.

2. Verify that you have the correct user name and password to access your SmartServer via FTP and

that FTP access is enabled on your SmartServer. To do this, follow these steps:

a. Right-click the local SmartServer icon, point to Setup, and then click Security on the shortcut

menu. Alternatively, you can click Setup and then click Security. The Setup – Security
Web page opens.

b. In the General property, verify that the FTP/Telnet User Name and FTP/Telnet Password

properties are correct.

c. In the Service property, verify that the Enable FTP check box is selected.

3. In the browser of an FTP client such as Core FPT, WS FTP Pro, and Cute FTP, enter the FTP

URL of your SmartServer (ftp://192.168.1.222, for example).

4. Enter the FTP/Telnet user name and password for accessing your SmartServer via FTP.

5. Upload your custom icons to both the /Web/images/tree and the /Web/images/app folders on the

SmartServer flash disk. The /web/images/tree folder stores the icons shown in the SmartServer
tree. The /web/images/app folder stores the icons shown in the upper left-hand corner of an
object’s configuration and driver Web pages.

6. Create a new device or functional block and verify that your custom icon appears in the

SmartServer tree.
