The Station List and Station Map

Viewing the Station Map

The Station Map window displays your ring in a scrollable panel.

The ring is represented by a single ellipse, with arrows indicating the ring direction. If the default size of the window is sufficient for the number of stations, the ellipse is sized to fit within the panel. However, in a ring with many stations, the size of the ellipse may exceed the window’s default size. In this case, you can use the scroll bar to access stations which are out of view, or resize the window.

Each node is graphically represented, in ring order, by a square on the ring. The squares are color coded, with the black square representing the MicroMMAC-T management station, and green squares indicating inserted ring stations.

The selected MicroMMAC-T is initially presented in one of two positions.

•If the entire ring fits in the display panel, the MicroMMAC-T is represented by the topmost (12 o’ clock) station square.

•If the ring exceeds the panel size, the MicroMMAC-T is represented by the rightmost (3 o’ clock) station square.

The MicroMMAC-T’s downstream neighbors are displayed in order, in a clockwise rotation from the management module. Upstream stations are displayed counterclockwise.

Using the mouse, you can access text boxes (see Figure 5-3) which display address information for the selected station and its neighbors. The mouse also brings up a command menu for the station.

Station Pop-up Text Boxes

Station pop-up text boxes display address information for stations on the network. To activate a station text box, use the mouse as follows:

1.Move the mouse to position the cursor over the desired station.

2.Depress the left mouse button to activate a text box for the station. A line will appear linking the text box to its station.
