Device View

This view displays information about the currently selected device. At present only one device can be selected at any one time. The information at the top of the view describes the frame/card identity details as described below.

Identity Group

This includes the card type and description which are fields read from the card as well as the user name which as the name implies can be changed by the user to better describe the function of the card in its current application. This field can be edited by pressing the edit details button on the right of the view.

Location

The IP Address and Slot number are known for a particular card. The location information allows the user to describe the physical location in the installation. This optional information will aid unfamiliar users of the system to locate the card, these fields can be edited by pressing the edit details button on the right of the view. Note: This information is not stored on the card itself but in the local database. Deletion of this physical database or use of another instance of this application will therefore not currently share this information.

Service

The Channel and Service information allows the user to describe the services that might be effected by the card. In some circumstances this information may not be valid although if the card were a distribution amplifier for a particular incoming line then it could be used in this circumstance to define the source or destinations being fed rather than the channel. Note: This information is not stored on the card itself but in the local database. Deletion of this physical database or use of another instance of this application will therefore not currently share this information.
