JDS Uniphase RS-232 Web Xpander Labeler, Configuration, Importing and Sending Device Labels

Web Xpander Labeler

The Web Xpander Labeler is a Windows utility that reads your device names from WinEVM and imports them into the Web Xpander. To install, run WebXlabel.exe located on the CD-ROM (the latest version is always available on the JDS Technologies web site). After you’ve used this tool to import your custom labels, your defined device names will appear on the web pages. The Web Xpander only shows data for devices that you have named/labeled in WinEVM or have manually defined in the Labeler tool.

Configuration

•Click "Options", "Configuration" to view or change the Network Settings. The Network Settings are used to send the labels to the Web Xpander via the network if you update your labels and after a firmware update.

Importing and Sending Device Labels

•Click the "Import from WinEVM" button to begin the process.

•When prompted, select the "DEVICE.DBF" file from your WinEVM directory. The labels you have defined in WinEVM will then be imported into the Web Xpander Labeler.

•Click "Send to Web Xpander" to send these labels to the Web Xpander using the network settings you have specified.

View / Edit Device Labels

•Click "Options", "Advanced" to view or edit the imported labels prior to sending them to the Web Xpander.

Load Default Labels

•Click "File", "Load Default Labels" to load a pre-defined set of default labels. These labels are generic labels and have no relation to your WinEVM settings.
