Chapter 13 - Troubleshooting

Graphics Issues

	panels lose communication, an error message will display for each panel, indicating
	which panel has lost communication.
	If an FPWeb-enabled panel loses communication, the Device Failures Count will
	increase, and the Panel will have an associated triangle icon in the navigation pane
	instead of an arrow.
	Solution: Check connections. Verify the panel is still FPWeb-enabled. Communications
	should be reestablished automatically as long as the browser session has not been
	terminated.
	Graphics Issues
	Displaying New Graphics in Browser
	Issue: The Web browser displays an older graphics file, even after the file has been
	modified and saved.
	Solution: Internet Explorer and Firefox store Web pages and flash files as “temporary
	Internet files” for faster loading. Clear the cache by deleting temporary Internet files
	(see browser Help system for more information). This should allow the application to
	display the newest graphics files.
	Existing Images are Resized after New Animation Frames are Added
	Issue: After a new animation image has been added to the set of frames in FINlite’s
	Animation Editor window, existing images are automatically resized to match the frame
	added by the user.
	Solution: Before bringing them into FINlite, be sure the images to be added for editing
	animation are sized similarly to the existing images, to avoid automatic resizing issues.
	User is Unable to Log in to Panel via FINlite
	Issue: If you open a graphic from your local file system before you have logged into
	any panels and then select Enter Live Mode, FINlite will display an error message.
	When you click OK, the login screen will display. The Panel Address will be populated
	with the last address that was used for login. If this is the first login of the current
	FINlite session, then the URL of the first bound point in the graphic is used. The Panel
	Address field is grayed out. If this is not the desired panel or if this panel is currently
	failed or unavailable, you cannot change to a different panel address.
	Solution: Cancel the login by selecting the X in the corner of the error window. Click
	Connect To Panels and login to one of the existing panels.
	Graphics Files do not Save Properly
	Issue: When using some special characters in graphics file names, the files do not
	save to the panel properly.
	Solution: You cannot create files which will be saved to the A:\ or B:\ drives that contain
	any of the following:
	 The following special characters:
	. \ / : * ? “ < > (includes period)
	 Characters with accent marks (such as é or ô)
