Dynamic Screens and Performance Enhancements

Dynamic screens are screens that can refresh data without re-submitting. In the Honeywell NetAXS™ panel, there is now a persistent connection between the web screens and the panel. This allows status updates from the panel to be pushed out to the screens automatically to display the data seamlessly on the screen.

In addition to the dynamic screens, other panel-side enhancements have been made that improve screen performance. Now the web server detects when panels of a loop come online faster. In the past, there was a 30- to 45-second delay during which a panel could be online before the web would detect it. Data transfer between the panel and web browsers has been optimized to reduce bandwidth requirements and improve screen response times overall.

Multi-language Support

Multi-language support consists of “language files” installed with the firmware or imported to a panel. A language selection is available on a per-user basis. The language files are available by upload from the panel or from the Honeywell website. You can customize the upload.

There are options to import, export, or delete the language files from a panel. During upgrades, the language files with default names are replaced by those included with the firmware, so we recommend that customizations be saved and imported with a different filename than any present after upgrade. After toggling firmware sets, some phrases may change or appear in English until the language file(s) matching the active firmware version are imported, or the next upgrade is completed.
