Lake Controller Operation Manual Rev 1.5.4
Network Menu Reference
primary Controller can re-enable multiple Controller mode in the same session and the secondary Control-
lers will automatically reconnect.
If multiple Controller mode is disabled then restored
by the primary Controller, the system configuration
will be transferred again to all secondary Controllers
to ensure data is synchronized.
15.2.4 Using the Analyzer with Multiple Lake Controllers
If a compatible analyzer is available on the network, Analyzer data can be transmitted and displayed on all
Controllers that have the ANALYZER ENABLE button activated.
Each Controller has the ability to disable the analyzer independently. One Controller can view analyzer data
while other Controllers continue working without the analyzer data being displayed.
To enable/disable analyzer data on a Controller, perform the following steps:
1. From
HOME, tap NETWORK, then MULTIPLE CONTROLLERS.
2.
Toggle the ANALYZER ENABLE button (orange equals enabled; blue equals disabled).
15.3 Working Offline
Working offline enables the Lake Controller to be used even if a network is not enabled or present. This
allows offline setup of system configurations.
Therefore, systems can be created or modified when the network of Lake devices is unavailable. To work
offline, start the Controller without a network adapter enabled, or select OFFLINE during initial network
selection on startup, or tap the NETWORK button and select the network card graphic labeled OFFLINE
from the scroll bar.
A large majority of functions can be used when offline, although some hardware-specific configuration
functions are not accessible.
If an existing system configuration has been
modified and stored while offline, the new values
will take effect when the system configuration is
recalled with an online Lake device network.
