System Settings - Manage Other Devices - Dynamic Device Discovery Pages

Before beginning to manage any other devices, the target Master must be loaded with the program which defines the new devices and modules. In addition to this code, all IP/Serial devices must be pre-configured and connected to the system.

To access this page, click on the Manage Other Devices link (from within the System Settings section of the Navigation frame). This page (FIG. 65) (within build 323 or higher) is used as the entry point for the management of all 3rd party Dynamically Discovered Devices.

Master)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

has been written, and you have notified the Master of a set of

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dynamic Devices on your system, you will then want to start

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

by managing those devices through this page.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Create User Defined Device page provides a Web interface

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

used in creating and managing the values necessary to add a

this page do not support the DDD beaconing technology.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

- If after confirming the presence of your programmed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dynamic Devices (provided to the Master via the NetLinx

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

code), and have allowed the Master to confirm the presence of

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

any other Dynamic Devices, manually enter those remaining

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

devices on the system via the UserDefined Device page.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note: IR-controlled devices (such as a VCR or Receiver) must

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

always be User-Defined devices.
