hints for operation


The common web technology has many advantages but also a few disadvantages. Most of the
information displayed rely on the data the browser receives from the web server of the communication
processor
on demand, i.e. it polls the web server for data. The polling process is divided into time slices
of different priorities and the browser content will not be updated automatically for all areas so a manual
reload is recommended if you are not sure about the parameters you see in the GUI.

If a module dies or someone removes a module from the frame, the module graphic turns red:


You can only get rid of the red coloured module graphic by inserting a working module. If the module is
permanently removed you must reboot the Frame Controller (press RESET button on the front panel
briefly, REBOOT it from the web interface or select “Reboot” from the console menu).
If the reboot has not been initiated by the browser you will get a pop up that you have been logged out and
you must press the button.

If a module has problems with updating a firmware component (rarely seen with older hardware) it may
happen that this process is not successful and the module may stay in programming mode. That mode is
indicated by orange color instead of red like above. If you experience such behavior you must start the
update process again. On some occasions it might be necessary to power cycle that specific module
before starting the update process again.
It is always a good idea to connect to the console of the Frame Controller either by Telnet via TCP/IP or
natively by RS232 or USB to RS232 converter an run a terminal program to observe the debug printouts
(see page 5).
