Inaccessible Panels
Panels on the ALN that are not web-enabled will be identified in the Navigation Pane
as grayed out. These panels are not accessible in any Web Server editor applications
which require panel selection.
Panels on the ALN that are “not ready” will be identified in the Navigation Pane as
grayed out. These panels are not accessible in any Web Server editor applications
which require panel selection.
Panels on the ALN that are web-enabled and “ready” but not updated to the current
firmware revision will be identified in the Navigation Pane with a yellow triangle icon in
the Navigation pane next to the panel name. These panels are not accessible in any
Web Server editor applications which require panel selection.
Pending Database File Synchronization
When a panel on the ALN is web-enabled, “ready”, and updated to the current
firmware revision, the Web Server application can discover its database, and provide
an indication when the database discovery is complete.
When a database discovery has been postponed or was never initiated, a yellow
triangle icon will display in the Navigation Pane next to the panel name to indicate a
conflict between the panel database file and the user interface database.
When a database discovery is needed, but the panel database file is being
synchronized, a message will display:
If this prompt appears while in the FLN Editor, it will only appear once, and the answer
will be preserved.
If this prompt appears following a panel expansion arrow selection, the answer will be
preserved until the database discovery is complete.
If you click No to this prompt, the yellow triangle icon will display in the Navigation
Pane next to the panel name, indicating your request to postpone database discovery.
If you click Yes to this prompt, the database will be discovered when the panel’s
database file is synchronized. A status table will display indicating the database file
synchronization status:
