Viewing Functional Blocks
You can use the Overview – Functional Blocks Web page to view the indexes, statuses, names, and
types of the L
ON W ORKS functional blocks in your network. If you open this Web page from the
default LON channel in the SmartServer tree, this Web page displays the functional blocks in the
SmartServer's internal application device (i.LON App) and virtual device (i.LON System) by default.
To view functional blocks with this Web page, follow these steps:
1. To rename functional blocks, click the Driver option at the top of the navigation pane on the left
side of the SmartServer Web interface.
2. Right-click a L ON W ORKS channel or device in the SmartServer tree or OpenLNS tree, point to
Overview, and then select Functional Blocks.
Note: You can select two or more channels or devices and view all the functional blocks on those
channels or devices in the same Overview – Functional Blocks page; however, the SmartServer’s
performance may be impacted by trying to create large lists of objects.
3. The Overview – Functional Blocks Web page opens.
4. You can sort the objects listed by clicking a property header.
5. View and /or configure the following properties:
Icon/Status Displays the icon used to represent the functional block in the
SmartServer or OpenLNS tree and in the application frame. If the
functional block is not configured or not synchronized with the
OpenLNS network database, a symbol or yellow highlighting
indicating the functional block's status appears to the right of the icon.
