• Status: Displays the condition of the board.
• Uptime: Displays how long the board has been running, or, if the Show
StartTime checkbox is selected, the date and time when the board was
started.
• Board Configuration: This section displays the current (“running”) con-
figuration file and the “pending” configuration file. The pending file is
loaded on the board and can be activated when “Active Pending” is
selected. “Parent Name” refers to the global configuration file used to
create the board file. (The name of the global configuration file is also
shown on the right-hand section of the table.)
CAUTION Activation of downloaded software will interrupt signals passing through the
system. Depending on the nature of the software upgrade, this interruption
may last for several minutes. For more information, including specific down-
load procedures, refer to the release notes supplied with the software.
If there is a Maestro board installed in a Maestro/Concerto+ frame that is
not defined in the Network Description table for the active configuration,
the
Unmanaged Boards button appears in the lower left corner.
Figure 158. Deployment Center Unmanaged Boards Button
Clicking this button will display information about all boards not currently
defined in the Network Description table. The presence of unmanaged
boards indicates the potential of "rogue" boards in the system that could
potentially cause a conflict and interfere with the configured Maestro pro-
cessors due to disparate software versions or configurations. If this is the
case, The Network Description table should be updated and the configura-
tion recompiled and redeployed.

In some cases, the Facility LAN IP Address field for the Deployment PC may be filled in incorrectly by the system software.
Check to make sure it indicates the facility LAN address (not the control LAN address)
