Introduction
Usage Notes
Navigation
You can lose recently entered configuration data if you switch pages (without saving). The Web
Suite will warn you if you leave a page without saving data. However, if you use the ‘back’ and
‘forward’ buttons of your browser, you can jump from page to page without losing data.
 (In most browsers) pressing backspace on you keyboard has the same effect as switching
pages. Be careful not to press backspace accidentally!
Takes
When a control panel operator performs a take, and the destination affected by the take is
displayed in your Web Suite window, the background of the table row or table cells for the desti-
nation turns green momentarily and then fades back to white over a period of a few seconds.
Note that this phenomenon occurs only in the multi-level and primary level views.
Locks and Protects
In the multi-level’ and primary level pages, the table entries for destinations that are locked are
colored red. The table entries for destinations that are protected are colored yellow.
In the matrix view, the matrix buttons (round-corner squares) are colored red for locked destina-
tions and are colored yellow for protected destinations.
Long Dashes in Tables
For systems with routers that are offline, many table entries that would normally appear with
source names (or other data) are void of data and have a long dash in the field.
Multi-level pages also show long dashes for levels that do not apply to the destinations listed on
the page.
There is no way to distinguish a source that does not apply from a source that exists in a router
that is offline. The best way to interpret the long dash is that it means “there is no applicable
source name.”
The same can be said about the string “--------” (8 dashes) in source name fields. This also means
“there is no applicable source name.” (The 8-dash string is generated by the system controller.)
