6.4.2 Web Server Interface – Operational Features
6.4.2.1 Virtual Front Panel
The MCED‐100 Web Server Interface features a read‐only ‘Virtual Front Panel’ display at the top
of every page. This section emulates the MCED‐100 front panel’s real‐time LED operation. This
provides the Web Server Interface user with ‘heads‐up’ operational status indicators that react
to any changes made to device operation.
6.4.2.2 Navigation
Each page features a row of top‐level navigation tabs located just
below the Virtual Front Panel. To navigate between pages, first roll
the cursor over and select a navigation tab. Then, select an available
primary page tab. In turn, any nested tabs will appear for further
selection.
This manual uses a naming format for all Web pages to indicate to the user the depth of
navigation needed to view the referenced page: “Top Level Tab | Primary Page Tab”.
For example: “Configuration | Interface” is interpreted to mean “first click the top‐level
‘Configuration’ navigation tab; then, click the ‘Interface’ primary page tab. Where applicable,
nested tabs may exist to direct the user to more specific functionality.
6.4.2.3 Page Sections
Each page is divided into operational content sections.
Whether there is one section to a page, or there are multiple
sections, the title at the upper‐left corner of each page section
provides the user with a reference to its operational features.
This manual explains the purpose and operation for each Web page on a per‐page, per‐section
basis.
6.4.2.4 Execution Buttons
Configuration changes generally do not take effect until a selection has
been saved to Flash memory. There may be anywhere from one
execution button per page up to multiple execution buttons within a
page section. The label for each of these buttons is generally self‐
