8900NET Instruction Manual 39
Using the 8900NET GUI
Locate Module
When Flash is selected in the Locate Module pulldown, the Locate Module
function flashes the yellow COMM and CONF LEDs on the front of the
module to locate in the frame.
Note Locate Module functionality depends on the module and software version.
Some modules will flash only one LED. Refer to the specific 8900 module
documentation for Locate Module functionality.
Slot Identification
You may identify the module by typing a specific name in the Name field.
The assigned name is stored on the 8900NET module and travels with the
8900NET module if it is moved to another frame. Select
Default to enter the
factory default module name.
Assign an Asset Tag number to the module in the Asset Tag field.
Note Not all 8900 modules have Asset Tag support.
Slot Memory
The slot configuration for each media module is automatically saved peri-
odically (once an hour) to the 8900NET module in that frame. You may also
select the
Learn Module Config button at any time to save the current configu-
ration for this slot. The configuration is saved on the 8900NET module. If
the 8900NET module is removed or powered down, the stored configura-
tions are not saved.
When the Restore upon Install box has been checked, the current configuration
saved to this slot is saved as slot memory. When the current module is
removed and another module of the same type is installed, the configura-
tion saved to the 8900NET module will be downloaded to the new module.
The box must be checked before the current module with the saved config-
uration is removed.
Frame Health Reporting
This function is not used on this software release.
Hardware Switch Controls
This section is a read-only status report of 8900NET module switch settings
for Module Status Reporting and Asynchronous Status Reporting. These
functions must be enabled with the 8900NET module DIP switches for the
following Slot SNMP Trap Reports to function.
