Panel Identity
NetConfig recognizes devices by their type, and organizes them in the
Load Software and Device View window hierarchies accordingly. In order
to update some older version control panels, or to correct a problem if the
wrong software was accidentally installed, it may be necessary to force a
panel to a different identity. This will move the device to a different hier-
archy location in NetConfig, and make it accessible for a specific software
installation. Changing the identify of a panel does not change the software
actually loaded on that device. It only changes how that panel reports its
presence to NetConfig.
To Change the Identity of a Control Panel:
1.
Run NetConfig, ensure the Prelude tab is not selected (so you see the
device’s web page), go to IP View, and select the desired control panel
in the left pane.
