User Guide

iC Navigator lets users display device-specific control windows. Icons at the top of the control
window provide a quick status indicator of key parameters. Color-coding enables operators
working locally or remotely to quickly identify the operating status of a device or service. From
iC Navigator, they can also display a configuration log panel for each device or service, which
highlights error conditions.
iC Navigator also provides access to a Log Viewer (via the General Status Manager (GSM)—see
below), which displays up to 100,000 of the most recent messages.
iC Navigator leverages industry standard SNMP protocols, and can fully integrate third party
control applications to create a complete facility-monitoring environment. With automated
reactions to failures, and guided operator responses, the system can deliver dramatically
reduced down times.
iC Navigator Views
Sorting allows you to determine the way in which devices will be arranged for display in
iC Navigator. Three views are available:
• Logical View arranges the devices in groups created by the user. Devices are sorted into
groups, and within each group, arranged in alphabetical order. Ungrouped devices are
displayed at the end of the list. Empty slots are not shown (unless they are in the Reference
Config).
Note: Displaying more than 10,000 messages in the Log Viewer may require system
adjustments to maintain acceptable performance levels.
Note: The grouping is done on the Application Server, and therefore, changes
apply for all users.
